दुर्योधनस्य बलिवर्णनम् — Duryodhana’s Description of Tribute at the Rājasūya
एवं प्रलम्भान् विविधानू प्राप्य तत्र विशाम्पते । पाण्डवेयाभ्यनुज्ञातस्ततो दुर्योधनो नृप:,राजन! इस प्रकार बार-बार धोखा खाकर राजा दुर्योधन राजसूय महायज्ञमें पाण्डवोंके पास आयी हुई अद्भुत समृद्धिपर दृष्टि डालकर पाण्डुनन्दन युधिष्ठिर-की आज्ञा ले अप्रसन्न मनसे हस्तिनापुरको चला गया
evaṁ pralambhān vividhān prāpya tatra viśāṁpate | pāṇḍaveyābhyanujñātas tato duryodhano nṛpaḥ ||
毗湿摩耶那说道：如此这般，在那里屡遭欺弄与羞辱之后，噢，民众之主！杜尔约陀那王——目睹般度族在罗阇苏耶大祭中所得的奇异繁荣——向坚战告辞，怀着不悦之心启程回诃斯提那补罗。

Educational Q&A
The verse highlights how envy and injured ego can eclipse discernment: instead of honoring another’s legitimate prosperity, Duryodhana internalizes resentment, which becomes a moral seed for later conflict.
After repeatedly being embarrassed/deceived in the Pāṇḍavas’ splendid setting during the Rājasūya occasion, Duryodhana asks Yudhiṣṭhira for leave and returns to Hastināpura, upset and brooding.
