भीष्मवधोपाय-प्रश्नः (Inquiry into the means to overcome Bhīṣma) | Chapter 103
तेतु क्रुद्धा महेष्वासा द्रौपदेया: प्रहारिण: । राक्षसं दुद्रुवु: संख्ये ग्रहा: पडच रविं यथा,द्रौपदीके पाँचों पुत्र महान् धनुर्धर तथा प्रहार करनेमें कुशल थे। उन्होंने संग्रामभूमिमें कुपित हो उस राक्षसपर उसी प्रकार धावा किया, मानो पाँच ग्रह सूर्यदेवपर आक्रमण कर रहे हों
te tu kruddhā maheṣvāsā draupadeyāḥ prahāriṇaḥ | rākṣasaṃ dudruvuḥ saṅkhye grahāḥ pañca ravim yathā ||
三阇耶说道：这时，德罗帕蒂的五子——皆为强弓劲射、善于击杀之士——在战场上怒不可遏，齐齐冲向那罗刹，宛如五大行星一同奔涌而上，欲攻日轮。

Sañjaya describes the five sons of Draupadī, renowned archers, becoming enraged and charging a rākṣasa in the midst of battle, likening their coordinated assault to five planets rushing upon the Sun.
