5.6.48

siddhavyañjanarūpo vā yogam āsthāya pārthivam /
labheta labdhvā dūṣyeṣu dāṇḍakarmikam ācaret //E

Having taken the garb of an accomplished ascetic, the minister may ingratiate himself with the king; and having brought the king under his influence, he may take coercive measure against the seditious.
