ग्रामाद् अनिर्णयणम् असम्पातं च सुरायाः, प्रमाद भयात् कर्मसु ञ्जिर्दिष्टानाम्, मर्याद अतिक्रम भयाद् आर्याणाम्, उत्साह भयाच् च तीष्क्णानाम् ॥

Liquor shall not be taken out of villages, nor shall liquor shops be close to each other. Lest workmen spoil the work in hand, and Aryas violate their decency and virtuous character, and lest firebrands commit indiscreet acts.
