If a hostile king be defeated by the army of the invader, the latter should not himself fight his defeated enemy. O the other hand, he should bring him to his place and induce him for whole year to say-I to say-I am your slave!-Whether he says or does not say this, the defeated enemy, by living for a year in the house of his victor, indeed gains a new life.
बलेन विजितो यश्च न तं युध्येत भूमिपः। संवत्सरं विप्रणयेत् तस्माज्जातः पुनर्भवेत्॥
