मित्रपुत्रकलत्राणि भ्रातरः पितरोऽपि हि। .. संसजन्ति क्षणमपि न त छरिव तस्करैः ।।७१॥
Meaning : The friends, sons, wives, brothers, parents etc. of thieves do not (like to) have any contact with him as no one likes to have contact with wicked people.

चौरोऽपि त्यक्तचौर्यः स्यात् स्वर्गभाग रौहिणेयवत् ॥७२॥ Meaning : The king puts into fetters the thief even if he be his relative, just like Mandika. If the thief gives up stealing, he gets heaven just like Rauhineya.
परस्य सर्वस्वमपहर्तुमुपक्रमः । उपाददीत नादत्तं तृणमात्रमपि क्वचित् ॥७३॥ Meaning : What to talk of an attempt to snatch away wealth and every thing belonging to others, one should not take a blade of grass even if it is (formally) not given.
परार्थग्रहणे येषां नियमः शुद्धचेतसाम् । • अभ्यायान्ति श्रियस्तेषां स्वयमेव स्वयंवराः ॥७४॥
अनर्था दूरतो यान्ति साधुवादः प्रवर्तते ।
स्वर्गसौख्यानि ढौकन्ते स्फुटमस्तेयचारिणाम् ॥७॥ Meaning : Wealth, of its own accord, goes to him and embraces him, who has vowed not to snatch away even a pebble blonging to others. He becomes free from dangers and is praised by everyone. He enjoys heavenly pleasures manifestly who has abandoned stealing.
