If any one asked for milk, and some one gave him hot broth, you would call him an ass. Mark the occasion; do not bring forward anything at any time. If a girl makes her mother speak inauspicious words on an auspicious occasion, she is a foul and vile woman; there is nothing graceful there. Tuka says, One who knows not the proper time and place is useless.
