1.89

kiṃ cānyat-śatru-pakṣo bhavān asmākam | śatruṇā sandhir na vidheyam | uktaṃ caitat-
śatruṇā na hi sandadhyāt saṃśliṣṭenāpi sandhinā |
sutaptam api pānīyaṃ śamayaty eva pāvakam //

And what is more: you belong to the party of enemies for us. Peace should not be made with an enemy. And this has been said: / One should not make peace with an enemy, even by a well-joined pact; / even though well-heated, water still extinguishes fire.
