<p n="55-59">"This general principle of law for kings must be maintained by you in every age": again and again Rāmabhadra makes this entreaty to all these happy sovereigns. The earth has been enjoyed by many kings, beginning with Sagara; whosoever t any time holds the soil has at the same time the fruit thereof. He who should appropriate land, whteher given by himself or given by others, is born as a worm in dung for sixty thousand years. He who should appropriate land belonging to gods or Brhamins which has been previously enjoyed perishes in course of time and is called a murderer of Brahmins. Poison is not called poison, gods' property is called "poison" ; poison destroys the individual, gods' property (if miappropriated) destroys son and grandson. Om!</p>
