दर्शने प्रसीदति, वाक्यं प्रतिगृह्णाति, आसनं ददाति, विविक्तो दर्शयते, शङ्का स्थाने न अतिशङ्कते, कथायां रमते, परिज्ञाप्येष्व् अवेक्षते, पथ्यम् उक्तं सहते, स्मयमानो नियुङ्क्ते, हस्तेन स्पृशति, श्लाघ्ये न उपहसति, परोक्षं गुणं ब्रवीति, भक्ष्येषु स्मरति, सह विहारं याति, व्यसने अभ्युपपद्यते, तद् भक्तीन् पूजयति, गुह्यम् आचष्टे, मानं वर्धयति, अर्थं करोति, अनर्थं प्रतिहन्ति इति तुष्ट ज्ञानम् ॥
"By cognising wisdom in others, he is pleased; he attends to the speech of others; he gives a seat; allows himself to be seen in private; does not suspect in places of suspicion; takes delight in conversation; spontaneously looks to things without being reminded; tolerates what is said agreeably to reason; orders with smiling face; touches with the hand; does not laugh at what is commendable; commends the qualities of another behind him; remembers (the courtier) while taking luncheon; engages himself in sports accompanied by (the courtier); consults (the courtier) when in trouble; honours the followers of the courtier; reveals the secret; honours the courtier more and more; gives him wealth; and averts his troubles;--these are the signs of the king's satisfaction (with the courtier)."
