5.5.29
ābhīraṃ koṭṭa-rājaṃ((150)) para-bhavana-gataṃ bhrātṛ-prayukto rajako jaghāna. kāśi-rājaṃ jayasenam aśvādhyakṣa iti.
The above mentioned ways of gaining over the wives of other men are chiefly practiced in the palaces of Kings. But a King should never enter the abode of another person, for Abhira the King of the Kottas was killed by a washerman while in the house of another, and in the same way Jayasana the King of the Kashis was slain by the commandment of his cavalry.
