SN.1.72. Rathasutta ("A Chariot")

Saṁyutta Nikāya ("The Linked Discourses")

“What’s the mark of a chariot?
What’s the mark of fire?
What’s the mark of a nation?
What’s the mark of a woman?”

“A banner is the mark of a chariot.
Smoke is the mark of fire.
A ruler is a nation’s mark.
And a husband is the mark of a woman.”
