2.89.1
एहि क्षत्तर्द्रौपदीमानस्व ।
प्रियां भार्यां संमतां पाण्डवानाम्।
संमार्जतां वेश्म परैतु शीघ्रं ।
तत्रास्तु दासीभिरपुण्यशीला ॥ २.८९.१ ॥
Come, Vidura, and bring Draupadī, the beloved and esteemed wife of the Pāṇḍavas. Let her quickly go and sweep the dwelling, and let her stay there with the maidservants, of unvirtuous conduct.
2.89.2
दर्विभाषं भाषितं त्वादृशेन ।
न मन्द सम्बुद्ध्यसि पाशबद्धः।
प्रपाते त्वं लम्बमानो न वेत्सि ।
व्याघ्रान्मृगः कोपयसेऽतिवेलम् ॥ २.८९.२ ॥
Such ill-spoken words have been uttered by one like you. Foolish one, you are bound by the snare and do not understand. Hanging over the precipice, you do not know it; like a deer before a tiger, you provoke anger beyond measure.
2.89.3
आशीविषास्ते शिरसि पूर्णकोपा महाविषाः ।
मा कोपिष्ठाः सुमन्दात्मन्मा गमस्त्वं यमक्षयम् ॥ २.८९.३ ॥
On your head are serpents full of wrath and of great poison. Foolish one, do not provoke them; do not go to the abode of Yama.
2.89.4
न हि दासीत्वमापन्ना कृष्णा भवितुमर्हति ।
जनीशेन हि राज्ञैषा पणे न्यस्तेति मे मतिः ॥ २.८९.४ ॥
Kṛṣṇā does not deserve to fall into the state of slavery; it is my opinion that she was staked by the king himself.
2.89.5
अयं दत्ते वेणुरिवात्मघाती ।
फलं राजा धृतराष्ट्रस्य पुत्रः।
द्यूतं हि वैराय महाभयाय ।
मत्तो न बुध्यत्ययमन्तकालम् ॥ २.८९.५ ॥
Like a bamboo, this one is self-destroying. This son of Dhṛtarāṣṭra, the king, is reaping his own fruit. Gambling surely brings enmity and great fear. Through my words he does not understand his time of death.
2.89.6
नारुन्तुदः स्यान्न नृशंसवादी ।
न हीनताः परमभ्याददीत।
ययास्य वाचा पर उद्विजेत ।
न तां वदेदुशती पापलोक्याम् ॥ २.८९.६ ॥
Let him not be one who wounds with harsh words, nor one who speaks cruelly, nor let him assail another with contempt. Let him not speak that word by which another is troubled, the word that leads to a sinful world.
2.89.7
समुच्चरन्त्यतिवादाश्च वक्त्रा-
ध्यौराहतः शोचति रात्र्यहानि।
परस्य नामर्मसु ते पतन्ति ।
तान्पण्डितो नावसृजेत्परेषु ॥ २.८९.७ ॥
Harsh words that come forth from the mouth strike the mind, and the one struck grieves night and day. Such words fall upon another's vital points. The wise man should not let them loose upon others.
2.89.8
अजो हि शस्त्रमगिलत्किलैकः ।
शस्त्रे विपन्ने शिरसास्य भूमौ।
निकृन्तनं स्वस्य कण्ठस्य घोरं ।
तद्वद्वेरं मा कृथाः पाण्डुपुत्रैः ॥ २.८९.८ ॥
They say a single goat swallowed a weapon; when the weapon lodged, it struck its head upon the ground and cut its own throat terribly. Likewise, do not make enmity with the sons of Pāṇḍu.
2.89.9
न किञ्चिदित्थं प्रवदन्ति पार्था ।
वनेचरं वा गृहमेधिनं वा।
तपस्विनं वा परिपूर्णविद्यं ।
भषन्ति हैवं श्वनराः सदैव ॥ २.८९.९ ॥
The sons of Pṛthā say nothing of this kind, whether the man dwells in the forest, is a householder, an ascetic, or one fully learned. Only men who are like dogs bark thus, always.
2.89.10
द्वारं सुघोरं नरकस्य जिह्यं ।
न बुध्यते धृतराष्ट्रस्य पुत्रः।
तमन्वेतारो बहवः कुरूणां ।
द्यूतोदये सह दुःशासनेन ॥ २.८९.१० ॥
This is the very terrible crooked gate of hell, and the son of Dhṛtarāṣṭra does not understand it. When gambling arises, many of the Kurus follow him, together with Duḥśāsana.
2.89.11
मज्जन्त्यलाबूनि शिलाः प्लवन्ते ।
मुह्यन्ति नावोम्भसि शश्वदेव।
मूढो राजा धृतराष्ट्रस्य पुत्रो ।
न मे वाचः पथ्यरूपाः शृणोति ॥ २.८९.११ ॥
Gourds sink and stones float; in the water, boats always go astray. The deluded king, Dhṛtarāṣṭra's son, does not hear my wholesome words.
2.89.12
अन्तो नूं भवितायं करूणां ।
सुदारुणः सर्वहरो विनाशः।
वाचः काव्याः सुहृदां पथ्यरूपा ।
न श्रूयन्ते वर्धते लोभ एव ॥ २.८९.१२ ॥
Surely the end of the Kurus will come, a most terrible destruction that takes everything. The wise, wholesome words of well-wishers are not heard; only greed grows.
2.89.13
धिगस्तु क्षत्तारमिति ब्रुवाणो ।
दर्पेण मत्तो धृतराष्ट्रस्य पुत्रः।
अवैक्षत प्रातिकामीं सभाया-
मुवाच चैनं परमार्यमध्ये ॥ २.८९.१३ ॥
Saying 'Shame upon this steward,' the son of Dhṛtarāṣṭra, intoxicated with arrogance, looked at Prātikāmin in the assembly and spoke to him among the noble ones.
2.89.14
त्वं प्रातिकामिन्द्रौपदीमानयस्व ।
न ते भयं विद्यते पाण्डवेभ्यः।
क्षत्ता ह्ययं विवदत्येव भीतो ।
न चास्माकं वृद्धिकामः सदैव ॥ २.८९.१४ ॥
'Prātikāmin, bring Draupadī here. You have no fear from the Pāṇḍavas. This steward speaks only out of fear; he never desires our prosperity.'
2.89.15
एवमुक्तः प्रातिकामी स सूतः ।
प्रायाच्छीघ्रं राजवचो निशम्य।
प्रविश्य च श्वेव हि सिंहगेष्ठं ।
समासदन्महिषीं पाण्डवानाम् ॥ २.८९.१५ ॥
Thus addressed, the charioteer Prātikāmin heard the king's words and departed quickly. Entering like a dog into a lion's den, he approached the queen of the Pāṇḍavas.
2.89.16
युधिष्ठिरो द्यूतमदेन मत्तो ।
दुर्योधनो द्रौपदि त्वामजैषीत्।
सा त्वं प्रपद्यस्व धृतराष्ट्रस्य वेश्म ।
नयामि त्वां कर्मणि याज्ञसेनि ॥ २.८९.१६ ॥
Yudhiṣṭhira, maddened by the intoxication of dice, has lost you, Draupadī; Duryodhana has won you. Go now to the house of Dhṛtarāṣṭra. O daughter of Yajñasena, I will take you to your task.
2.89.17
कथं त्वेवं वदसि प्रातिकामि-
को हि दीव्येद्भार्यया राजपुत्रः।
मूडो राजा द्यूतमदेन मत्तो ।
ह्यभून्नान्यत्कैतवमस्य किञ्चित् ॥ २.८९.१७ ॥
How can you say such a thing, Prātikāmin? What prince would gamble with his own wife? The foolish king was maddened by the intoxication of dice; there was no other deceit in him at all.
2.89.18
यदा नाभूत्कैतवमन्यदस्य ।
तदाऽदेवीत्पाण्डवोऽजातशत्रुः।
न्यस्ताः पूर्वं भ्रातरस्तेन राज्ञा ।
स्वयं चात्मा त्वमथो राजपुत्रि ॥ २.८९.१८ ॥
When there was no other deceit in him, Ajātaśatru the Pāṇḍava gambled. That king first staked his brothers, then himself, and then you, O princess.
2.89.19
गच्छ त्वं कितवं गत्वा सभायां पृच्छ सूतज ।
किं तु पूर्वं पराजैषीरात्मानमथवा नु माम् ॥ २.८९.१९ ॥
Go to the gambler in the assembly and ask him, son of the charioteer: did he first lose himself, or me?
2.89.20
एतज्ज्ञात्वा समागच्छ ततो मां नयं सूतज ।
ज्ञात्वा चिकीर्षितमहं राज्ञो यास्यामि दुःखिता ॥ २.८९.२० ॥
Having learned this, come back and then bring me; knowing the king's intention, I will go, grieving.
2.89.21
सभां गत्वा स चोवाच द्रौपद्यस्तद्वचस्तदा ।
युधिष्ठिरं नरेनद्राणां मध्ये स्थितमिदं वचः ॥ २.८९.२१ ॥
Having gone to the assembly hall, he then spoke these words of Draupadī to Yudhiṣṭhira, who was standing in the midst of the lords of men.
2.89.22
कस्येशो नः पराजैषीरिति त्वामाह द्रौपदी ।
किं नु पूर्वं पराजैषीरात्मानमथवापि माम् ॥ २.८९.२२ ॥
"Whose lord were you, that you lost us?" Draupadī asks you this. "Did you first lose yourself, or me?"
2.89.23
युधिष्ठिरस्तु निश्चेता गतसत्व इवाभवत् ।
न तं सूतं प्रत्युवाच वचनं साध्वसाधु वा ॥ २.८९.२३ ॥
But Yudhiṣṭhira became senseless, as if lifeless, and did not answer the charioteer with any word, right or wrong.
2.89.24
इहैवागत्य पाञ्चाली प्रश्नमेनं प्रभाषताम् ।
इहैव सर्वे शृण्वन्तु तस्याश्चैतस्य यद्वचः ॥ २.८९.२४ ॥
Let the Pāñcāla princess come here herself and put this question; let all here hear her words and his.
2.89.25
स गत्वा राजभवनं दुर्योधनवशानुगः ।
उवाच द्रौपदीं सूतः प्रातिकामी व्यथन्निव ॥ २.८९.२५ ॥
That charioteer, under Duryodhana's sway, went to the royal palace and, as a messenger, spoke to Draupadī as if distressed.
2.89.26
सभ्यास्त्वमी राजपुत्र्याह्वयन्ति ।
मन्ये प्राप्तः संशयः कौरवाणाम्।
न वै समृद्दिं पालयते लघीयान् ।
यस्त्वां सभां नेष्यति राजपुत्रि ॥ २.८९.२६ ॥
These assembly members summon the princess. I think doubt has fallen upon the Kauravas. A petty man does not protect prosperity; he who will lead you to the assembly, princess, is petty indeed.
2.89.27
एवं नूनं व्यदधात्संविधाता ।
स्पर्शावुभौ स्पृशतो वृद्धबालौ।
धर्मं त्वेकं परमं प्राह लोके ।
स नः शमं धास्यति गोप्यमानः ॥ २.८९.२७ ॥
Thus surely the creator ordained: the old and the young both receive the same touch. In the world, dharma alone is declared supreme; if it is protected, it will bring us peace.
2.89.28
सोऽयं धर्मो मा त्यगात्कौरवान्वै ।
सभ्यान्गत्वा पृच्छ धर्म्यं वचो मे।
ते मां ब्रूयुर्निश्चितं तत्करिष्ये ।
धर्मात्मानो नीतिमन्तो वरिष्ठाः ॥ २.८९.२८ ॥
May that dharma not abandon the Kurus. Go to the members of the assembly and ask them my righteous word; let them tell me surely, 'We shall do it'—they who are righteous-souled, wise in policy, and the best.
2.89.29
श्रुत्वा सूतस्तद्वचो याज्ञसेन्याः ।
सभां गत्वा प्राह वाक्यं तदानीम्।
अधोमुखास्ते न च किञ्चिदूचु-
र्निर्बन्धं तं धार्तराष्ट्रस्य बुद्ध्वा ॥ २.८९.२९ ॥
Having heard that word of Yājñasenī, the charioteer went to the assembly and then spoke these words. With downcast faces they said nothing at all, understanding the obstinacy of Dhṛtarāṣṭra's son.
2.89.30
युधिष्ठिरस्तु तच्छ्रुत्वा दुर्योधनचिकीर्षितम् ।
द्रौपद्याः संमतं दूतं प्राहिणोद्भरतर्षभ ॥ २.८९.३० ॥
But Yudhiṣṭhira, having heard Duryodhana's intention, with Draupadī's consent sent a messenger, O bull of the Bharatas.
2.89.31
एकवस्त्र त्वधोनीवो रोदमाना रजस्वला ।
सभामागम्य पाञ्चालि श्वशुरस्याग्रतो भव ॥ २.८९.३१ ॥
Wearing a single garment, the knot of it loosened below, weeping, and in your menstrual state, come into the assembly, O Pāñcālī, and stand before your father-in-law.
2.89.32
अथ त्वामागतां दृष्ट्वा राजपुत्रीं सभां तदा ।
सभ्याः सर्वे विनिन्देरन्मनोर्भिर्धृतराष्ट्रजम् ॥ २.८९.३२ ॥
Then, seeing you, the princess, come into the assembly, all the members of the assembly blamed the son of Dhṛtarāṣṭra in their minds.
2.89.33
स गत्वा त्वरितं दूतः कृष्णाया भवनं नृप ।
न्यवेदयन्मतं धीमान्धर्मराजस्य निश्चितम् ॥ २.८९.३३ ॥
O king, that messenger went quickly to Kṛṣṇā's dwelling and reported the settled decision of the wise king of dharma.
2.89.34
पाण्डवाश्च महात्मानो दीना दुःखसमन्विताः ।
सत्येनातिपरीताङ्गा नोदीक्षन्ते स्म किञ्चन ॥ २.८९.३४ ॥
The great-souled Pāṇḍavas, wretched and filled with sorrow, their limbs greatly afflicted by the bond of truth, looked up at nothing.
2.89.35
ततस्त्वेषां मुखमालोक्य राजा ।
दुर्योधनः सूतमुवाच हृष्टः।
इहैवैतामानय प्रातिकामिन् ।
प्रत्यक्षमस्याः कुरवो ब्रुवन्तः ॥ २.८९.३५ ॥
Then, looking at their faces, King Duryodhana, delighted, said to the charioteer: "Prātikāmin, bring her here; let the Kurus speak right in her presence."
2.89.36
ततः सूतस्तस्य वशानुगामी ।
भीतश्च कोपाद्द्रुपदात्मजायाः।
विहाय मानं पुनरेव सभ्या-
नुवाच कृष्णां किमहं ब्रवीमि ॥ २.८९.३६ ॥
Then the charioteer, obedient to his command, afraid and fearing the anger of Drupada's daughter, abandoning his pride, again asked the members of the assembly: "What should I say to Kṛṣṇā?"
2.89.37
दुःशासनैष मम सूतपुत्रो ।
वृकोदरादुद्विजतेऽल्पचेताः।
स्वयं प्रगृह्यानय याज्ञसेनीं ।
किं ते करिष्यन्त्यवशाः सपत्नाः ॥ २.८९.३७ ॥
"Duḥśāsana! This son of my charioteer has become small-minded, frightened of Vṛkodara. You yourself seize her and bring Yājñasenī here. What can these helpless rivals do to her?"
2.89.38
ततः समुत्थाय स राजपुत्रः ।
श्रुत्वा भ्रातुः शासनं रक्तदृष्टिः।
प्रविश्य तद्वेश्म महारथाना-
मित्यब्रवीद्द्रौपदीं राजपुत्रीम् ॥ २.८९.३८ ॥
Then that prince rose, heard his brother's command, and with red eyes entered the house of the great charioteers and spoke thus to Draupadī, the princess.
2.89.39
एह्येहि पाञ्चालि राजपुत्रीम् ।
दुर्योधनं पश्य विमुक्तलज्जा।
कुरून्भजस्वायतपत्रनेत्रे ।
धर्मेण लब्धाऽसि सभां परैहि ॥ २.८९.३९ ॥
Come, come, Pāñcālī princess! Cast off shame and look at Duryodhana. Serve the Kurus, O long-lotus-eyed one; you were won lawfully. Go to the assembly.
2.89.40
ततः समुत्थाय सुदूर्मनाः सा ।
विवर्णमामृज्य मुखं करेण।
आर्ता प्रदुद्राव यतः स्त्रियस्ता ।
वृद्धस्य राज्ञः कुरुपुङ्गवस्य ॥ २.८९.४० ॥
Then, deeply distressed, she rose, wiped her pale face with her hand, and, afflicted, fled to where the women of the aged king, the bull of the Kurus, were.
2.89.41
ततो जवेनाभिससार रोषा-
द्दुःशासनस्तामभिगर्जमानः।
दीर्घेषु नीलेष्वथ चोर्मिमत्सु ।
जग्राह केशेषु नरेन्द्रपत्नीम् ॥ २.८९.४१ ॥
Then Duḥśāsana, roaring, rushed at her swiftly in rage and seized the king's wife by her long, dark, wavy hair.
2.89.42
ये राजसूयावभृथे जलेन ।
महाक्रतौ मन्त्रपूतेन सिक्ताः।
ते पाण्डवानां परिभूय वीर्यं ।
बलात्प्रमृष्टा धृतराष्ट्रजेन ॥ २.८९.४२ ॥
Those hands which had been sprinkled with mantra-purified water at the final bath of the great Rājasūya sacrifice were forcibly touched by the son of Dhṛtarāṣṭra, who had dishonored the valour of the Pāṇḍavas.
2.89.43
स तां पराकृष्य सभासमीप-
मानीय कृष्णामतिदीर्घकेशीम्।
दुःशासनो नाथवतीमनाथव-
च्चकर्ष वायुः कदलीमिवार्ताम् ॥ २.८९.४३ ॥
Having dragged her near the assembly hall, Duḥśāsana pulled Kṛṣṇā of very long hair, as if she had no protector, as the wind shakes an afflicted banana plant.
2.89.44
सा कृष्णमाणा नमिताङ्गयष्टिः ।
शनैरुवाचाथ रजस्वलाऽस्मि।
एकं च वासो मम मन्दबुद्धे ।
सभां नेतुं नार्हसि मामनार्य ॥ २.८९.४४ ॥
Dragged along, her slender body bent, she spoke softly: "I am menstruating, and I have only one garment. O dull-witted one, O ignoble man, you ought not to lead me into the assembly."
2.89.45
ततोऽब्रवीत्तां प्रसभं निगृह्य ।
केशेशु कृष्णेषु तदा स कृष्णाम्।
कृष्णं च जिष्णुं च हरिं नरं च ।
त्रायाय विक्रोशति याज्ञसेनि ॥ २.८९.४५ ॥
Then, seizing her by her dark hair with force, he spoke to her as she cried out for protection: "Call upon Kṛṣṇa, Jiṣṇu (Arjuna), Hari and Nara, O daughter of Yajñasena!"
2.89.46
रजस्वला वा भव याज्ञसेनि ।
एकाम्बरा वाप्यथवा विवस्त्रा।
द्यूते जिता चासि कृताऽसि दासी ।
दासीषु वासश्च यथोपजोषम् ॥ २.८९.४६ ॥
"O daughter of Yajñasena, whether you are menstruating, wearing one garment, or even without any garment, you were won at dice and made a slave; a slave's clothing will be as one pleases."
2.89.47
प्रकीर्णकेशी पतितार्धवस्त्रा ।
दुःशासनेन व्यवधूयमाना।
हीमत्यमर्षेण च दह्यमाना ।
शनैरिदं वाक्यमुवाच कृष्णा ॥ २.८९.४७ ॥
With disheveled hair and her garment half fallen, shaken about by Duḥśāsana, burning with shame and indignation, Kṛṣṇā softly spoke these words.
2.89.48
इमे समायामुपनीतशास्त्राः ।
क्रियावन्तः सर्व एवेन्द्रकल्पाः।
गुरुस्थाना गुरवश्चैव सर्वे ।
तेषामग्रे नोत्सहे स्थातुमेवम् ॥ २.८९.४८ ॥
Before all these assembled men, initiated into the scriptures, performers of rites, like Indra, and occupying the place of elders, I am not able to stand thus.
2.89.49
नशंसकर्मंस्त्वमनार्यवृत ।
मा मा विवस्त्रां कुरु मा विकार्षीः।
न मर्षयेयुस्तव राजपुत्राः ।
सेन्द्रापि देवा यदि ते सहायाः ॥ २.८९.४९ ॥
You of cruel deeds, of ignoble conduct, do not make me disrobed, do not drag me. Even if the gods with Indra were your helpers, your royal sons would not tolerate this.
2.89.50
धर्मे स्थितो धर्मसुतो महात्मा ।
धर्मश्च सूक्ष्मो निपुणोपलक्ष्यः।
वाचापि भर्तुः परमाणुमात्र-
मिच्छामि दोषं न गुणान्विसृज्य ॥ २.८९.५० ॥
Yudhiṣṭhira, son of Dharma, great-souled and established in dharma; dharma is subtle, discerned only by the skilled. Even in my husband's words I wish to find only a fault the size of an atom, not setting aside the virtues.
2.89.51
इदं त्वकार्यं कुरुवीरमध्ये ।
रजस्वलां यत्परिकर्षसे माम्।
न चापि कश्चित्कुरुतेऽत्र कुत्सां ।
ध्रुवं तवेदं मतमभ्युपेतः ॥ २.८९.५१ ॥
This is an improper deed, in the midst of the heroes of the Kurus: you are dragging me, a woman in her courses. Here no one even reproaches it; surely this is your opinion, to which all have assented.
2.89.52
धिगस्तु नष्टः खलु भारतानां ।
धर्मस्तथा क्षत्रविदां च वृत्तम्।
यत्र ह्यतीतां कुरुधर्मवेलां ।
प्रेक्षन्ति सर्वे कुरवः सभायाम् ॥ २.८९.५२ ॥
Shame! Surely the dharma of the Bhāratas is destroyed, and likewise the conduct of those who know the duties of kshatriyas. Here, where the limit of Kuru dharma is being transgressed, all the Kurus look on in the assembly.
2.89.53
द्रोणस्य भीष्मस्य च नास्ति सत्त्वं ।
क्षत्तुस्तथैवास्य चनास्ति सत्त्वं
क्षत्तुस्तथैवास्य महात्मनोपि ।
न लक्षयन्ति कुरुवृद्धमुख्याः ॥ २.८९.५३ ॥
Droṇa and Bhīṣma have no courage, and likewise Kṣattṛ (Vidura) has no courage; even the great-souled one. The foremost elders of the Kurus do not notice it.
2.89.54
तथा ब्रुवन्ती करुणं सुमध्यमा ।
भर्तॄन्कटाक्षैः कुपितानपश्यत्।
सा पाण्डवान्कोपपरीतदेहा-
न्सन्दीपयामास कटाक्षपातैः ॥ २.८९.५४ ॥
Speaking thus piteously, the slender-waisted one looked at her husbands, enraged, with sidelong glances. With the falling of her sidelong glances she kindled the Pāṇḍavas, whose bodies were overcome with anger.
2.89.55
हृतेन राज्येन तथा धनेन ।
रत्नैश्च मुख्यैर्न तथा बभूव।
यथा त्रपाकोपसमीरितेन ।
कृष्णाकटाक्षेण बभूव दुःखम् ॥ २.८९.५५ ॥
By the loss of the kingdom, wealth and chief jewels, there was not such grief as there was from Kṛṣṇā's sidelong glance, stirred by shame and anger.
2.89.56
दुःशासनश्चापि समीक्ष्य कृष्णा-
मवेक्षमाणां कृपणान्पतींस्तान्।
आधूय वेगेन विसञ्ज्ञकल्पा-
मुवाच दासीति हसन्सशब्दम् ॥ २.८९.५६ ॥
Duḥśāsana also, seeing Kṛṣṇā gazing at her wretched husbands, shook her violently and, laughing loudly, said to her as she seemed nearly senseless, "Slave!"
2.89.57
कर्णस्तु तद्वाक्यमतीव हृष्टः ।
सम्पूजयामास हसन्सशब्दम्।
गान्धारराजः सुबलस्य पुत्र-
स्तथैव दुःशासनमभ्यनन्दत् ॥ २.८९.५७ ॥
Karṇa, delighted by those words, laughing loudly, applauded them; and the king of Gāndhāra, Subala's son, likewise cheered Duḥśāsana on.
2.89.58
सभ्यास्तु ये तत्र बभूवुरन्ये ।
ताभ्यामृते धार्तराष्ट्रेण चैव।
तेषामभूद्दुः खमतीव कृष्णां ।
दृष्ट्वा सभायां परिकृष्यमाणाम् ॥ २.८९.५८ ॥
But the other assembly members there, except those two and the son of Dhṛtarāṣṭra, were exceedingly grieved on seeing Kṛṣṇā being dragged in the assembly.
2.89.59
न धर्मसौक्ष्म्यात्सुभगे विवेक्तुं ।
शक्रोमि ते प्रश्नमिमं यथावत्।
अस्वाम्यशक्तः पणितुं परस्वं ।
स्त्रियाश्च भर्तुर्वशतां समीक्ष्य ॥ २.८९.५९ ॥
O fortunate one, because dharma is subtle, I cannot rightly decide this question of yours. One who is not the owner and lacks power cannot stake another's property; and considering that a wife is subject to her husband...
2.89.60
त्यजेत सर्वां पृथिवीं समृद्धां ।
युधिष्ठिरो धर्ममथो न जह्यात्।
उक्तं जितोऽस्मीति च पाण्डवेन ।
तस्मान्न शक्नोमि विवेक्तुमेतत् ॥ २.८९.६० ॥
Yudhiṣṭhira might give up the entire prosperous earth, but he would not abandon dharma. The Pāṇḍava said, 'I have been defeated'; therefore I am unable to decide this.
2.89.61
द्व्यूतेऽद्वितीयः शकुनिर्नरेषु ।
कुन्तीसुतस्तेन निसृष्टकामः।
न मन्यते तां निकृतिं युधिष्ठिर-
स्तस्मान् ते प्रश्नमिमं ब्रवीमि ॥ २.८९.६१ ॥
In the dice-game, Śakuni is unrivalled among men. Yudhiṣṭhira, son of Kuntī, gave up his desire through him, and does not regard that deception as such; therefore I put this question to you.
2.89.62
आहूय राजा कुशलैरनार्यै-
र्दुष्टात्मभिर्नैकृतिकैः सभायाम्।
द्यूतप्रियैर्नातिकृतप्रयत्नः ।
कस्मादयं नाम निसृष्टकामः ॥ २.८९.६२ ॥
Having summoned the king in the assembly, skilled players—ignoble, evil-minded, deceitful, and fond of dice—he did not strive too greatly. Why has this one, Ayam, indeed abandoned his desire?
2.89.63
अशुद्धभावैर्निकृतिप्रवृत्तै-
रबुध्यमानः कुरुपाण्डवाग्र्यः।
सम्भूय सर्वैश्च जितोऽपि यस्मा-
त्पश्चादयं कैतवमभ्युपेतः ॥ २.८९.६३ ॥
Unaware of those impure-minded men intent on deceit, all of them together defeated this foremost of the Kurus and Pāṇḍavas; and afterwards he resorted to trickery.
2.89.64
तिष्ठन्ति चेमे कुरवः सभाया-
मीशाः सुतानां च तथा स्नुपाणाम्।
समीक्ष्य सर्वे मम चापि वाक्यं ।
विब्रूत मे प्रश्नमिमं यथावत् ॥ २.८९.६४ ॥
In this assembly stand these Kurus, lords of the sons and likewise of the daughters-in-law. Having considered my words, let all of you answer this question to me rightly.
2.89.65
न सा सभा यत्र न सन्ति वृद्धा ।
न ते वृद्धा ये न वदन्ति धर्मम्।
नासौ धर्मो यत्र न सत्यमस्ति ।
न तत्सत्यं यच्छलेनानुविद्धम् ॥ २.८९.६५ ॥
That is not an assembly where there are no elders; those are not elders who do not speak dharma. That is not dharma where there is no truth; that is not truth which is pierced through with deceit.
2.89.66
तथा ब्रुवन्तीं करुणं रुदन्ती-
मवेक्षमाणां कृपणान्पतींस्तान्।
दुःशासनः परुषाण्यप्रियाणि ।
वाक्यान्युवाचामधुराणि चैव ॥ २.८९.६६ ॥
Thus, as she spoke piteously and wept, looking at those wretched husbands, Duḥśāsana spoke harsh, unpleasant, and unsweet words to Draupadī.
2.89.67
तां कृष्यमाणां च रजस्वलां च ।
स्रस्तोत्तरीयामतदर्हमाणाम्।
वृकोदरः प्रेक्ष्य युधिष्ठिरं च ।
चकार कोपं परमार्तरूपः ॥ २.८९.६७ ॥
Seeing her being dragged along, she who was menstruating, her upper garment slipped, she who did not deserve this, and looking at Yudhiṣṭhira, Vṛkodara (Bhīma) grew angry in a form of extreme anguish.
