यदभिध्याम्यहं शश्वच्छुभं वा यदि वाशुभम् । नैतद्विपन्नपूर्वं मे मित्रेष्वरिषु चोभयोः॥५-६०-२१॥
Whatever I continually intend—whether beneficial or harmful—has never before failed for me, whether aimed at allies or at adversaries.

This greatness of mine is publicly attested and renowned in all directions. I have stated it to reassure you, O king, not out of self-praise.
