- c. 1260s, Jalāl ad-Dīn Mohammad Rūmī, translated by Reynold A. Nicholson, مثنوی معنوی [Masnavi-ye-Ma'navi], volume II, verse 1305:
  تیر را مشکن که این تیر شهی است
  تیر پرتابی ز شصت آگهی است
  tīr rā ma-šikan ki īn tīr-i šah-ē-st
  tīr partāb-ē zi šast-i agah-ē-st
  Do not break the arrow, for it is the arrow of a King;
  it is not shot at long range (at random), it is from the thumb-stall of One who knows (how to hit the target).
