संकट गतम् अग्निना, धान्वन गतं धूमेन, निधान गतं रसेन, तोय अवगाढं दुष्ट ग्राहैर् उदक चरणैर् वा तीक्ष्णाः साधयेयुः, आदीप्त आवासान् निष्पतन्तं वा ॥

He should be destroyed with fire when he is under a thicket; with smoke when he is in a desert; with poison when he is in a comfortable place; with crocodile and other cruel beasts when he is in water; or they may slay him when he is going out of his burning house.
