Verse 360:
Restraint in the eye is good,
good is restraint in the ear;
restraint in the nose is good,
good is restraint in the tongue.

Verse 361:
Restraint in body is good,
good is restraint in speech;
restraint in mind is good,
good is restraint in all the senses.
A Bhikkhu restrained in all the senses is freed from all ills (samsara dukkha).
