A king seeking prosperity should studiously win over as many men as he can, and do them good. In his conduct towards his subjects he should always be shorn of malice. He should also studiously punish and restrain the wicked and disaffected.
संग्रहानुग्रहे यत्नः सदा कार्योऽनसूयता। निग्रहश्चापि यत्नेन कर्तव्यो भूतिमिच्छता॥
