7.3.34

phaladānena bhūmīnāṃ mokṣaṇaṃ syād avakrayaḥ /
phalātimukto bhūmibhyaḥ saṃdhiḥ sa paridūṣaṇaḥ //

When by the stipulation of paying the produce of the land, the kingdom is set free, it is termed avakraya, ‘rent.’ That which is concluded by the promise of paying more than the land yields is paribhúshana, ‘ornament.’

R. Shamasastry 1915, Kautilya's Arthaśāstra
