PTS cs 15 The king said: ‘These qualities which are so different, Nāgasena, do they bring about one and the same result?’
‘They do. The putting an end to evil dispositions.’
‘How is that? Give me an illustration.’
‘They are like the various parts of an army—elephants, cavalry, war chariots, and archers—who all work to one end, to wit: the conquest in battle of the opposing army.’
‘Well put, Nāgasena!’
