65. Persuasiveness
641.
Persuasiveness is a great gift
Rich beyond all else.
642.
Speech can both make and mar, and hence
Should be guarded well.
643.
Eloquence charms the hearer and fills with longing
Those who have not heard.
644.
Speak fittingly than which there is
No greater virtue or wealth.
645.
Speak so that what you say
May never be gainsaid.
646.
To persuade and gain by what others say
Mark good counsellers.
647.
A good speaker, tireless, unforgetful and bold
Is hard to quell.
648.
The world will run and listen to a speech
Sweet and well-set.
649.
Those fond of talking much
Cannot be brief and faultless.
650.
The learned lacking expression
Are flowers without scent.
