SABHA PARVA

'इमं च पापिष्ठमतिं कर्णे ससुतबान्धवम् ।
सामात्यं सपरीवारं हनिष्यति धनञ्जयः ॥
 
"And this Karna of most evil mind,
him together with his sons, kinsmen,
ministers and attendants, Arjuna shall kill.
 
'क्षुद्रधर्म नैकृतिकं शकुनिं पापचेतसम् ।
सहदेवो रणे क्रुद्धो हनिष्यति सबान्धवम् ॥'
 
a cheat
 
"This Sakuni, mean in nature,
and an evil-minded fellow, him together
 
with his kith and kin, infuriated Sahadeva
shall kill in battle."
 
एवमुक्ते तु षचने द्रौपद्या धर्मशीलया ।
ततोऽन्तरिक्षात्सुमहत् पुष्पवर्षमवापतत् ॥
 
When the virtuous Draupadi spoke thus,
a very great shower of flowers fell from
the heavens.
 
द्रौपद्या वचनं श्रुत्वा धनुरादाय वीर्यवान् ।
सव्यसाची समुत्पत्य ताञ्छन् समुदक्षत ।
 
Hearing Draupadi's words, the valorous
Arjuna seized his bow, jumped up and
looked at those enemies.
