Hearing the noise made by the army of Yudhishthira, those great car-warriors, viz., Kritavarman, Kripa and the son of Drona, said to the Kuru king:-"Elated with joy and desiring for victory the Pandavas are coining here, you know. We will, therefore, leave this place."
यौधिष्ठिरस्य सैन्यस्य श्रुत्वा शब्दं महारथाः। कृतवर्मा कृपो द्रौणी राजानमिदमब्रुवन्॥ इमे ह्यायान्ति संहृष्टाः पाण्डवा जितकाशिनः। अपयास्यामहे तावदनुजानातु नो भवान्॥
