5.53

Fifth, deficiency of conditions: If the first condition is lacking, such that the two states do not intend enmity, one incurs a preparatory offense, not considered from the aspect of killing. Second, if it is not for profit, but there is only a malicious intent; or if there is no malicious intent, but it is only for profit or fame, an offense is committed in either case. If this condition is entirely lacking, one incurs a grave preparatory offense. Third, if one does not transmit [the messages] and so forth, there is no offense at all. Fourth, if they do not harm each other, one also incurs a grave preparatory offense; this can be understood.
