Shloka 116
न हि कर्णशरानन्य: सोदुमुत्सहते नर: । “कुन्तीनन्दन! तुम्हें पूर्ण प्रयत्न करके सूतपुत्र कर्णका वध करना चाहिये। दूसरा कोई मनुष्य कर्णके बाणोंको नहीं सह सकता है

na hi karṇaśarān anyaḥ soḍhum utsahate naraḥ |
سنجے نے کہا—کرن کے تیروں کو سہنے کی طاقت تمہارے سوا کسی انسان میں نہیں۔ اس لیے، اے کنتی نندن! پوری کوشش کرکے سوت پتر کرن کو قتل کرو۔
