1.17.7

"nṛśaṃsam aduṣṭavadhaḥ kṣatrabījavināśaś ca" iti viśālākṣaḥ //

"This is,” says Visáláksha, “cruelty, destruction of fortune, and extirpation of the seed of the race of Kshattriyas. Hence it is better to keep them under guard in a definite place.”

R. Shamasastry 1915, Kautilya's Arthaśāstra
