Eaerupol peedu nadai.
If
a
man's
wife
does
not
bring
him
credit
and
honour,
he
cannot
walk
With
proud
'
leonine'
gait
in
the
face
of
his
Detractors.
A man, who is not fortune to have a good wife that assists him along the path to honour and glory, dare not walk like a lion in the midst of his enemies.
Shakespeare's sarcastic remark in Measure for Measure is also relevant here:
'A
light
wife
doth
make
heavy
husband'.
It
is
also
recorded
in
the
bible,
'drooping
hands
and
weak
knees
are
caused
by
the
wife
who
does
not
make
her
husband
happy'.
