kūrakarmā va satkṛta rājayoga jñāna
aśubhagaganavāsaiḥ svoccagaiḥ krūraceṣṭaṃ kathayati yavanendro bhūpatiṃvikramottham |
na tu bhavati narendo jīvaśarmokṛtapakṣe bhavati nṛpatiyogaiḥ satkṛto rāṣṭrapālaḥ ||

Knowledge of the royal combinations of cruel deeds and honoring:
The lord of the Greeks says that when malefic planets reside in the sky in their exaltation signs, a ruler arises from valor whose actions are cruel;
but in the opinion formulated by Jīvaśarman, he does not become a king; through royal combinations he becomes a honored guardian of a realm.
