अहीन कालं राज अर्थं स्व अर्थं प्रिय हितैः सह । पर अर्थं देश काले च ब्रूयाद् धर्म अर्थ संहितम् ॥

Without losing the opportune moments, he should speak of the king's interest; of his own interest when in company with persons friendly to him; and of others interests in a suitable time and place, and in conformity to the principles of righteousness and economy.
