Aftermath of Karṇa’s Fall: Śalya’s Address to Duryodhana
Devanagari script
पूर्व यदुक्त हि सुयोधनेन न फाल्गुन: प्रमुखे स्थास्यतीति । कर्णस्य युद्धे हि महाबलस्य मौख्यात् तु तन्नावबुद्धं मया55सीत्
Translation
सुयोधन ने पहले ही कहा था कि ‘महाबली कर्ण के युद्ध में फाल्गुन (अर्जुन) सामने टिक न सकेगा।’ पर उसकी इस बात पर मैंने मूर्खतावश विश्वास नहीं किया था।
