श्रुत्वा तु तद् भीमवच: सुघोरं दुःशासनो भीमसेन निरीक्ष्य,भीमसेनका यह अत्यन्त भयंकर वचन सुनकर दुःशासनने उनकी ओर देखा। देखते ही वह क्रोधसे जल उठा। युद्धस्थलमें उनके वैसा कहनेपर उसकी त्यौरी बदल गयी थी; अतः वह समस्त कौरवों तथा सोमकोंके सुनते-सुनते मुसकराकर रोषपूर्वक बोला --
Transliteration
śrutvā tu tad bhīmavacaḥ sughoraṃ duḥśāsano bhīmasenaṃ nirīkṣya |
Translation
Sañjaya said: Hearing those exceedingly dreadful words spoken by Bhīma, Duḥśāsana fixed his gaze upon Bhīmasena. At once he flared up with anger; and, in the hearing of the Kauravas and the Somakas, he smiled and spoke with wrath—his brow knit in response to Bhīma’s challenge on the battlefield.
