Arthashastra
यदि वा मन्येत "प्रवर्ष उष्ण शीतम् अतिव्याधि प्रायम् उपक्षीण आहार उपभोगं सैन्य व्यायामानां च औपरोधिकं कार्य साधनानाम् ऊनम् अतिरिक्तं वा कालं परश् चेष्टिष्यते, विपरीतम् अहम्" इत्य् एतस्मिन् विशेषे परिपणित कालं संधिम् उपेयात् ॥
When the conqueror thinks that "my enemy has to work with food stuffs falling short and with no comfort during the rainy, hot or cold season, giving rise to various kinds of diseases and obstructing the free exercise of his army during a shorter or longer period of time than necessary for the accomplishment of the work in hand; and I have to work during a time of quite the reverse nature," then he should make time a factor of the agreement.
