सहदेव उवाच यदेतत् कथितं राज्ञा धर्म एष सनातनः। यथा च युद्धमेव स्यात् तथा कार्यमरिंदम॥

Sahadeva said All this which has been said by the king is eternal virtue; but, O chastiser of foes, should act in that way by which there shall be war.

कथं नु दृष्ट्वा पाञ्चालीं तथा कृष्ण सभागताम्। अवधेन प्रशाम्येत मम मन्युः सुयोधनेः॥

Having seen the princess of Panchala come in the assembly, O Krishna, annoyed in that fashion, how can my wrath towards Suyodhana be appeased without killing him?
