Manu 8.144
न भोक्तव्यो) बलाद् आधिर् भुञ्जानो) वृद्धिम् उत्सृजेत्) । मूल्येन तोषयेच्) च-एनम् आधिस्तेनो ऽअन्यथा भवेत्) ॥
na bhoktavyo) balād ādhir bhuñjāno) vṛddhim utsṛjet) | mūlyena toṣayec) ca-enam ādhisteno 'anyathā bhavet) ||
Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
A pledge (to be kept only) must not be used by force, (the creditor), so using it, shall give up his (whole) interest, or, (if it has been spoilt by use) he shall satisfy the (owner) by (paying its) original price; else he commits a theft of the pledge.
