Vāsudeva dit : Hors de lui de colère, le puissant et vaillant Bhīmasena le poursuivit. Puis il l’aperçut à son tour—caché dans les eaux du lac nommé Dvaipāyana.

Educational Q&A
The verse highlights how anger fuels relentless action, yet hiding cannot erase accountability. In the ethical frame of the epic, consequences follow one’s choices, and attempts to evade them only delay confrontation.
Bhīma, furious, chases his adversary and discovers him concealed in the waters of the Dvaipāyana lake—identifying Duryodhana’s hiding place.
