11.21
na tasmin dhārayed daṇḍaṃ dhārmikaḥ pṛthivīpatiḥ
kṣatriyasya hi bāliśyād brāhmaṇaḥ sīdati kṣudhā //
On him (who, for the reasons stated, appropriates another's possessions), a righteous king shall not inflict punishment; for (in that case) a Brahmana pines with hunger through the Kshatriya's want of care.
