तस्मिन् प्राग् एव आरभ्य प्रतिष्ठाप्य च स्व कर्माणि पर कर्मसु विक्रमेत ॥

व्यसन त्वर अवमान आलस्य युक्तम् अज्ञं वा शत्रुम् अतिसंधातु कामो देश काल कार्याणाम् अनवस्थापनात् "संहितौ स्वः" इति संधि विश्वासेन परच् छिद्रम् आसाद्य प्रहरेद् इत्य् अपरिपणितः ॥
When, in order to destroy an enemy who has fallen into troubles and who is hasty, indolent, and not foresighted, an agreement of peace with no terms of time, space, or work is made with an enemy merely for mutual peace, and when under cover of such an agreement, the enemy is caught hold of at his weak points and is struck, it is termed peace with no definite terms (aparipanita).
english translation
तत्र एतद् भवति ॥
With regard to this there is a saying as follows:--
english translation
सामन्तेन एव सामन्तं विद्वान् आयोज्य विग्रहे । ततो अन्यस्य हरेद् भूमिं छित्त्वा पक्षं समन्ततः ॥
"Having kept a neighbouring enemy engaged with another neighbouring enemy, a wise king should proceed against a third king, and having conquered that enemy of equal power, take possession of his territory."
