“Tamil:
உனக்கும் பேபே உன் அப்பனுக்கும் பேபே.”
“English Translation:
Pè, pè to you, and pè pè to your father also.The following story is told about this proverb:—a debtor had two creditors. One of them said if you will pay me I will suggest an expedient for getting rid of the other creditor. He then instructed him when again applied to for payment, to feign madness, and to say Pé, Pé a demon, a demon. The creditor not satisfied had him summoned before a Magistrate where he did as before. The Magistrate thinking the debtor mad, decided that he was not amenable to a court of justice.The other creditor then went to the debtor expecting to be paid according to promise. To his surprise the man said Pé, Pé, whereupon he said, do you deal with me also in this way, when, the debtor replied as the proverb stands.”,
