Sanskrit · 7.64.p23604

बलं च सुभृतं वीर हृष्टपुष्टमनुद्धतम् । सम्भाषासम्प्रदानेन रञ्जयस्व नगेत्तम ।। ७.६४.५ ।।

English · Meaning

And [take] a well-maintained army, O hero, joyful, robust, and not arrogant. Win them over through courteous conversation. The transmitted word नगेत्तम is unclear; literally it may suggest “best of the city” or “supreme in the city,” but its intended syntactic referent cannot be determined with certainty. Conditionally, the final instruction is to win over the foremost people of the city through conversation.
