SABHA PARVA
 
121
 
युधिष्ठिरः-
'यारशीं धर्मकामार्थसिद्धिमिच्छेन्नरस्त्रियम् ।
तयैवंविधया राजन् पाञ्चाल्याऽहं सुमध्यया ।
ग्लहं दीव्यामि चार्वझ्या द्रौपद्या हन्त सौबल॥'
 
Alas ! Sakuni, with her who is such
a woman as man would like to have for the
realisation of Dharna, Artha and Kama,—
with such a woman of fine waist and lovely
limbs, the daughter of the king of the
Panchalas, as bet, I play."
 
एवमुक्ते तु वचने धर्मराजेन धीमता ।
धिग्धिगित्येव वृद्धानां सभ्यानां निस्सृता गिरः ॥
 
When such words were spoken by the
wise Yudhisthira, voices of Fie, fie' arose
from the elders
among those assembled
 
there.
 
चुक्षुभे च सभा [राजन् ] राक्षां संजशिरे शुचः।
भीष्मद्रोणकृपादीनां स्वेदश्च समजायत ॥
 
The assembly became agitated; the
kings became afflicted ; Bhishma, Drona
Kripa and others perspired.
