Shloka 29
Droṇa’s Rebuke to Duryodhana after Jayadratha’s Fall (द्रोणेन दुर्योधनं प्रति प्रत्युक्तिः)
एको बहून् समासाद्य कच्चिन्नासीतू पराड्मुख: । अत्यन्त सुखमें पला हुआ, इस लोक तथा राजलक्ष्मीका स्वामी अकेला दुर्योधन बहुसंख्यक योद्धाओंके साथ युद्ध करके रणभूमिसे विमुख तो नहीं हुआ? ।। संजय उवाच राजन संग्राममाश्चर्य तव पुत्रस्य भारत
sañjaya uvāca | eko bahūn samāsādya kaccin nāsīt parāṅmukhaḥ | rājān saṅgrāmam āścaryaṃ tava putrasya bhārata ||
Sañjaya said: “O King, after encountering many warriors all alone, did your son not turn away from the battlefield? Though reared in great comfort and possessing sovereignty and royal fortune in this world, did Duryodhana—standing single against a multitude—remain steadfast in the fight? O Bhārata, the battle involving your son was indeed astonishing.”
