ADI PARVA
 
55
 
With a single chariot and with Bhima
as his aid, Arjuna conquered in battle
all the kings of the east with (their) myriad
chariots.
 
तथैवैकरथो गत्वा दक्षिणामजयद्दिशम् ।
धनौघं प्रापयामास कुरुराष्ट्रं धनञ्जयः ॥
 
Proceeding similarly with a single chariot,
he conquered the South. Arjuna, the
winner of wealth, brought a heap cf treasure
to the Kuru empire.
 
यतः पञ्चदशे वर्षे सर्वमेतच्चकार सः ।
तं दृष्ट्वा धार्तराष्ट्राणां ततो भयमजायत ॥
 
Since all this Arjuna did in his fifteenth
year, fear arose in the sons of Dhritarashtra
on seeing him.
 
एवं सर्वे महात्मानः पाण्डवा मनुजोत्तमाः ।
परराष्ट्राणि निर्जित्य स्वराष्ट्रं ववृधुः पुरा ॥
 
Thus did the Pandavas, all of them great
souls and best of men, conquer the enemy
kingdoms of yore and expand their own
kingdom.
