Udyoga Parva 63: Dhṛtarāṣṭra’s Counsel Reminding Duryodhana of Opponent Strength
Devanagari script
शाकुनिक उवाच पाशमेकमुभावेतौ सहितौ हरतो मम । यत्र वै विवदिष्येते तत्र मे वशमेष्यत:,व्याध बोला--मुने! ये दोनों पक्षी आपसमें मिल गये हैं, अतः मेरे एकमात्र जालको लिये जा रहे हैं। अब ये जहाँ-कहीं एक दूसरेसे झगड़ेंगे, वहीं मेरे वशमें आ जायँगे
Translation
The fowler replied: “Sage, these two birds are acting together, and so they are carrying off my single net. But wherever they fall into quarrel with one another, there they will come under my power.”
