Great prosperity waiteth upon him who hath subdued his senses, or controlled his soul, or who is capable of punishing all offenders, or who acteth with judgment or who is blessed with patience. One’s body, O king, is one’s car; the soul within is the driver; and the senses are its steeds. Drawn by those excellent steeds, when well-trained, he that is wise, pleasantly performeth the journey of life, and awake in peace.

In plain words: Good fortune comes to those who control their senses, act with good judgment, and are patient. Vidura compares the body to a chariot, the inner self to its driver, and the senses to its horses; when the horses are well trained, the wise person travels through life calmly and peacefully.
