दुर्योधन–द्रोणसंवादः
Arjuna-vīrya-prasaṃśā and renewed battle formation
'परंतु उन अत्यन्त प्रबल तथा शूरवीर नरेशोंको भी पाण्डवोंने युद्धमें मार डाला। पुरुषाधम! तुम इसमें दैवसंयोगके सिवा दूसरा कौन-सा कारण मानते हो? ।। यांश्व तान् स्तौषि सततं दुर्योधनरिपून् द्विज । तेषामपि हता: शूरा: शतशो5थ सहस्रश:,“ब्रह्मन! तुम दुर्योधनके जिन शत्रुओंकी सदा स्तुति करते रहते हो, उनके भी तो सैकड़ों और सहसौरों शूरवीर मारे गये हैं
sanjaya uvāca | parantu tān atyanta-prabalān tathā śūravīrān nareśān api pāṇḍavaiḥ yuddhe mārayām āsa | puruṣādhama! tvam atra daiva-saṃyogāt paraṃ dvitīyaṃ kāraṇaṃ kim manyase || yāṃś ca tān stauṣi satataṃ duryodhana-ripūn dvija | teṣām api hatāḥ śūrāḥ śataśo 'tha sahasraśaḥ ||
Sanjaya said: Yet the Pāṇḍavas slew even those kings who were exceedingly mighty and renowned as heroes in battle. O lowest of men, what cause other than the convergence of fate do you see in this? And, O brāhmaṇa, even among those enemies of Duryodhana whom you continually praise, hundreds and even thousands of warriors have been killed as well.
