5.5.28

na tv evaṃ parabhavanam īśvaraḥ praviśet//

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.
