yaḥ paraṃ "evaṃ tvāṃ kariṣyāmi" iti karaṇenābhibhartsayed, akaraṇe yas tasya karaṇe daṇḍas tato 'rdhadaṇḍaṃ dadyāt //

If a person intimidates another by using such expressions as ‘I shall render thee thus’, the bravado shall be punished with half as much fine as will be levied on him who actually does so.
