Sanskrit subhashita covering all samasas

Here is a Subhashita containing names of Samasa-s

द्वन्द्वो द्विगुरपि
 चाहं मद्गेहे नित्यमव्ययी भावः । 
तत्पुरुष कर्म धारय येनाहं स्यां बहुव्रीहिः ॥१५॥

I am a married man (द्वन्द्वः) with a measly two cows (द्विगुः) (i.e. a poor man); in my household there is never any money to spend (अव्ययीभावः). My good man, please do something (तत्पुरुष कर्म धारय) so that I can be a rich man (बहुव्रीहिः).
