You have described also the duties of kings, and discoursed on their treasures, the means of filling them, and on the subject of conquest and victory. You have also described the characteristics of ministers, the measures that secure the prosperity of the subjects, the characteristics of the six limbs of a kingdom, the qualities of armies, the means of marking out the wicked, and the marks of the good, the attributes of those that are equal, those that are inferior, and those that are superior, the conduct which a king seeking selfaggrandisement should follow towards the masses, and the manner in which the weak should be protected and cherished. You have described all these subjects, O Bharata, delivering instructions sanctioned by the scriptures.
राज्ञां वित्तं च कोशं च कोशसंचयनं जयः। अमात्यगुणवृत्तिश्च प्रकृतीनां च वर्धनम्॥ पाड्गुण्यगुणकल्पश्च सेनावृत्तिस्तथैव च। परिज्ञानं च दुष्टस्य लक्षणं च सतामपि॥ समहीनाधिकानां च यथावल्लक्षणं च यत्। मध्यमस्य च तुष्ट्यर्थं यथा स्थेयं विवर्धता॥ क्षीणग्रहणवृत्तिश्च यथाधर्मं प्रकीर्तितम्। लघुना देशरूपेण ग्रन्थयोगेन भारत॥
