Arthashastra
सुव्यावर्त्या श्रेणी समान शील व्यसनत्वात्, श्रेणी मुख्य एक देश उपग्रहेण वा ॥
it is very easy to get rid of (the troubles from) a corporation; since it has to rise or fall with the king; or it can be put down by arresting its leader or a part of the corporation itself,
english translation
suvyAvartyA zreNI samAna zIla vyasanatvAt, zreNI mukhya eka deza upagraheNa vA ॥
