From Sri Krishna Deva Raya's political treatise:
<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->Burn the kingdom of your enemy and seize his forts. If
his wives happen to fall into your hands, treat them as you
would treat your sisters and daughters. In the presence of his
envoys, do not litter harsh words about him, for you may be
obliged to conclude peace with him,
Pg 180.
