दृष्टिसाङ्गबलेष्टकष्टाद्यानयनाधिकारः
सार्द्धरूपे तनोः पीडा द्वाभ्यां दुःखं सुखं समम्॥सार्द्धद्वाभ्यां सुखावाप्तिस्त्रिभिर्भागः सुखं धनम्॥सार्द्धत्रये सर्वसिद्धिश्चतुर्भिः सर्वतो यश इति ॥
At one and a half rupa (unit of strength), pain in the body. At two, sorrow and happiness are equal. At two and a half, happiness is gained. At three, a share, happiness and wealth. At three and a half, success in everything. At four, fame everywhere.
Simple meaning: Strength of 1.5 to 4 units: body pain at 1.5, mixed at 2, happiness at 2.5, wealth at 3, success at 3.5, fame at 4.

अणुवृत्तिरल्पवृत्तिः अयपुण्यता पुण्यराहित्यं अनुगभीः स्वसेवकाद्भयं ॥
Meanings: anuvritti is a small livelihood, ayapunyata is lack of merit, anugabhi is fear from servants.
अथ प्रसंगादिष्टकष्टविचारो लिख्यते ॥ तत्प्रयोजनमुक्तं रत्नावल्याम् ॥
