The heroic son of Pandu by Madri, having large arms, copper complexion, frugal speech and immense prowess in the field of battle, known by the name Nakula by virtue of his matchless beauty in the family, took away the string of his bow with which he had conquered all the regions of the west.
अजयत् पश्चिमामाशां धनुषा येन पाण्डवः। माद्रीपुत्रो महाबाहुस्ताम्रास्यो मितभाषिता॥ तस्य मौर्वीमपाकर्षच्छूरः संक्रन्दनो युधि। कुले नास्ति समो रूपे यस्येति नकुलः स्मृतः।।२५।
