सकृद् आत्म आधाता निष्पतितः सीदेत्, द्विर् अन्येन आहितकः, सकृद् उभौ पर विषय अभिमुखौ ॥
Any person who has once voluntarily enslaved himself shall, if guilty of an offence (nishpatitah), be a slave for life. Similarly, any person whose life has been twice mortgaged by others shall, if guilty of an offence, be a slave for life. Both of these two sorts of men shall, if they are once found desirous to run away to foreign countries, be slaves for life.
