tam aśuddhaṃ vijānīyāt tathā śuddhaṃ viparyaye
divye ca śuddhaṃ puruṣaṃ sat kuryād dhārmiko nṛpaḥ //

Should be known to be guilty; otherwise (if nothing adverse happens to him), he is freed from the charge. A just king should honour (with presents of clothes, ornaments, &c.) one who has cleared himself from guilt by an ordeal.
