Verse 1193: Shame of being lifted
1193. Shame of being lifted
விழுந்தவன் கையேற்றான் மேலேறும் பாரம்விழுந்தவன் நெஞ்சேறும் நாண்
vizhundavan kaiyetraan melerum paaramvizhundavan nenjerum naan
Onto the man who takes the fallen one’s hand, a weight climbs; into the fallen one’s heart, shame climbs.
The fall may be of body or of fortune. One verb of rising carries both the helper’s load and the fallen one’s shame.
