दुर्ग जन पद शक्त्या भृत्य कर्म समुदय पादेन स्थापयेत्, कार्य साधन सहेन वा भृत्य लाभेन ॥

IN accordance with the requirements of his forts and country parts, the king should fix under one-fourth of the total revenue the charges of maintaining his servants. He should look to the bodily comforts of his servants by providing such emoluments as can infuse in them the spirit of enthusiasm to work.
