अन्योत्त्कय: (पद्य) — Sanskrit STD 12 Science — Question

The poet says that self-respect is paramount for an elephant. An elephant sees impassively to the giver of the food and eats the food with affectionate words. While a dog is helpless. It wags its tail to the giver of the food, falls at the feet of him and shows his face and stomach to the giver of the food. This is the difference between a dog and an elephant.
