चिकित्सकः प्रच्छन्न व्रण प्रतीकार कारयितारम् अपथ्य कारिणं च गृह स्वामी च निवेद्य गोप स्थानिकयोर् मुच्येत, अन्यथा तुल्य दोषः स्यात् ॥

Any physician who undertakes to treat in secret a patient suffering from ulcer or excess of unwholesome food or drink, as well as the master of the house (wherein such treatment is attempted) shall be innocent only when they (the physician and the master of the house) make a report of the same to either Gopa or Sthánika; otherwise both of them shall be equally guilty with the sufferer.
