How could you say to him-"Killing only one amongst us be you the king." Forsooth the children of Pandu and Kunti are not destined to enjoy kingdom. They have been born for passing their lives in continued exile in the forest or in mendicancy.
एकं वास्मान् निहत्य त्वं भव राजेति वै पुनः। नूनं न राज्यभागेषा पाण्डोः कुन्त्याश्च संततिः॥ अत्यन्तवनवासाय सृष्टा भैक्ष्याय वा पुनः।
