Shloka 10
इत्युक्तः स तु तच्चक्रे भीमो नृपतिशासनम् । हृष्ट: श्रुव्वा गुडाकेशमायान्तं पुरुषर्षभम्,यह सुनकर भीमसेनने राजाकी आज्ञाका तुरंत पालन किया। वे पुरुषप्रवर अर्जुनका आगमन सुनकर बहुत प्रसन्न थे
ity uktaḥ sa tu tac cakre bhīmo nṛpatiśāsanam | hṛṣṭaḥ śrutvā guḍākeśam āyāntaṁ puruṣarṣabham ||
Вайшампаяна сказал: Так обращённый, Бхима тотчас исполнил повеление царя. Услышав, что Гудакеша — Арджуна, лучший из мужей, — приближается, он преисполнился радости.
