अनाथाः स्म वयं सर्वे वियुक्ताः पाण्डुनन्दनैः ॥ २.१०२.२८ ॥

इति पौराः सुदुः खार्ताः क्रोशन्ति स्म पुनः पुनः ॥ २.१०२.२९ ॥
What affection can we have for the ill-behaved and greedy Kauravas? Thus the citizens, deeply afflicted with sorrow, cried out again and again.

नोत्सहेयं परित्यक्तुं दैवं हि बलवत्तरम् ॥ २.१०२.४२ ॥

पाण्डवानां प्रियरतस्तस्मान्मां भयमाविशत् ॥ २.१०२.४७ ॥
Dhṛṣṭadyumna, the brother-in-law of Pṛthā's sons by marriage, is devoted to the dear ones of the Pāṇḍavas; therefore fear has entered me.

ज्वालावर्णो देवदत्तो धनुष्मान्कवची शरी ।
मर्त्यधर्मतया तस्मादद्य मे साध्वसो महान् ॥ २.१०२.४८ ॥

मद्वधायाश्रितोऽप्येष लोके चाप्यतिविश्रुतः ॥ २.१०२.५१ ॥
