प्राग् एव मरण आबाध भयाद् राज्ञः प्रिय हित उपग्रहेण मास द्वि मास अन्तरं दर्शनं स्थापयेद् "देश पीडा अपहम् अमित्र अपहम् आयुष्यं पुत्रीयं वा कर्म राजा साधयति" इत्य् अपदेशेन ॥
long before the apprehended death of the king, he shall, in concert with his friends and followers allow visitors to the king once in a month or two (and avoid their visits on other occasions) under the plea that the king is engaged in performing such rites as are calculated to avert national calamities, or are destructive of enemies, or capable of prolonging life or of procuring a son.
