Shloka 41
अतीव सुमहत् कर्म कृतवानसि फाल्गुन । असहां चाविषहां च देवैरपि सवासवै:,'फाल्गुन! आज तुमने बड़ा भारी कर्म कर दिखाया। इसका सम्पादन करना अथवा इसके भारको सह लेना इन्द्रसहित सम्पूर्ण देवताओंके लिये भी असम्भव था

atīva sumahat karma kṛtavān asi phālguna |
asahāṃ cāviṣahāṃ ca devair api savāsavaiḥ ||
Sañjaya dit : «Ô Phālguna (Arjuna), aujourd’hui tu as accompli un acte d’une grandeur extrême—si lourd et si redoutable que même les dieux, Indra compris, n’auraient pu en porter le fardeau ni le mener à son terme.»
