Sanskrit Text

यस्य मन्त्रं जानन्ति बाह्याश्चाभ्यन्तराश्च ये राजा सर्वतश्चक्षुश्चिरमैश्वर्यमश्नुते

English Translation

Those born is high families are endued with a forgiving nature; and stay like fire in the wood without showing any outward symptoms. The king, whose intentions cannot be known by outsiders and even by his own officers and who has his eyes everywhere, enjoys long prosperity. One should not speak of what he wants to do, nor show what he has already done.
