And he asked the Kshatriyas assembled there, saying-"Where is the king that great carwarrior!"-Hearing those words of Shakuni, O foremost of Bharatas, they replied saying "There stands the great car-warrior, viz., the Kuru king-there the large umbrella, effulgent like the full moon, is seen, —there where those car-warriors, clad in mail, are staying-there where that loud noise, deep as the muttering of clouds, is being heard. Go quickly thither, O king and you will see the Kuru king."-Thus spoken to by those brave warriors. Subala's son Shakuni, O king, proceeded where your son was waiting, surrounded on all sides by unretreating heroes.
अपृच्छत् क्षत्रियांस्तत्र क्व नु राजा महाबलः। शकुनेस्तद् वचः श्रुत्वा तमूचुर्भरतर्षभ।।३। असौ तिष्ठति कौरव्यो रणमध्ये महाबलः। यत्रैतत् सुमहच्छत्रं पूर्णचन्द्रसमप्रभम्॥ यत्र ते सतनुत्राणा रथास्तिष्ठन्ति दंशिताः। यत्रैष तुमुलः शब्दः पर्जन्यनिनदोपमः॥ तत्र गच्छ द्रुतं राजंस्ततो द्रक्ष्यसि कौरवम्। एवमुक्तस्तु तैर्योधैः शकुनिः सौबलस्तदा॥ प्रययौ तत्र यत्रासौ पुत्रस्तव नराधिप। सर्वतः संवृत्तो वीरैः समरे चित्रयोधिभिः॥
