यदा वा पश्येत् "स्व दण्डैर् मित्र अटवी दण्डैर् वा समं ज्यायांसं वा कर्शयितुम् उत्सहे" इति तदा कृत बाह्य अभ्यन्तर कृत्यो विगृह्य आसीत ॥

When a king finds it possible to put down by means of his own army, or with the help of a friend, or of wild tribes, another king of equal or superior power, then having set up proper defences against both internal and external enemies, he may keep quiet after proclaiming war.
