कुर्याद् अवेक्षणं पूर्वौ पश्चिमौ त्व् आबलीयसम् । आदाय फलम् इत्य् एते देश उपनत संधयः ॥

One should prefer the first; but the last two based upon the payment of the produce should be made only when one is obliged to submit to power. These are the forms of peace made by ceding territory.

english translation

kuryAd avekSaNaM pUrvau pazcimau tv AbalIyasam । AdAya phalam ity ete deza upanata saMdhayaH ॥
