Verse 6.12.18

नोदगुः कार्यसंपत्तावाक्रान्ता नास्तमाययुः ।
जहृषुर्न सुखप्राप्तौ मम्लुर्नैव च संकटे ॥ १८ ॥

nodaguḥ kāryasaṃpattāvākrāntā nāstamāyayuḥ |
jahṛṣurna sukhaprāptau mamlurnaiva ca saṃkaṭe || 18 ||

They are neither elated with the success of their undertakings, nor are they depressed by the mishap of their efforts, they are not joyous at their joy and hey-day, nor do they sink under in danger and difficulty.
