O king, your kingdom should always be protected by the help of the science of punishment. You should also, by careful observation made through the movements of your spies, protect it in such a manner that no one may injure it.
दण्डनीत्या च सततं रक्षितव्यं नरेश्वर। नाधर्षयेत् तथा कश्चिच्चारनिष्पन्ददर्शनात्॥
