Transliteration
sa kṛcchūṁ paramaṁ prāpto dharmarājo yudhiṣṭhiraḥ | tyaktvā tat kārmukaṁ chinnaṁ bhāradvājena saṁyuge ||
Translation
Sañjaya said: King Yudhiṣṭhira, steadfast in dharma, was driven into extreme distress on the battlefield; for his bow had been cut down in the fight by Bhāradvāja (Droṇa), and he was forced to abandon it—an image of the righteous king brought low by the harsh necessities and reversals of war.
