One should unhesitatingly live in that country whose king is given to virtue and which the king rules virtuously, casting off desires and possessed of prosperity, and where severe punishment is inflicted on those who subject self-controlled to the consequences of their anger, on those who treat men treat wickedly the righteous, on those who commit acts of violence, and on the covetious.
उपसृष्टेषु दान्तेषु दुराचारेषु साधुषु। अविनीतेषु लुब्धेषु सुमहद् दण्डधारणम्॥ यत्र राजा धर्मनित्यो राज्यं धर्मेण पालयेत्। अपास्य कामान् कामेशो वसेत् तत्राविचारयन्॥
