Having struck Duryodhana down the brave Bhimasena, approaching the Kuru chief, addressed him, saying-O wretch, formerly laughing at Draupadi who had no cloth in the midst of the assembly, you, O fool, called us Cows. Bear now the consequences of that insult. Saying so, he struck the head of his fallen foe, with his left foot. Indeed, he struck the head of that best of kings with his foot.
ततो दुर्योधनं हत्वा भीमसेनः प्रतापवान्। पातितं कौरवेन्द्र तमुपगम्येदमब्रवीत्॥ गौगौरिति पुरा मन्द द्रौपदीमेकवाससम्। यत् सभायां हसन्नस्मांस्तदा वदसि दुर्मते॥ तस्यावहासस्य फलमद्य त्वं समवाप्नुहि। एवमुक्त्वा स वामेन पदा मौलिमुपास्पृशत्॥ शिरश्च राजसिंहस्य पादेन समलोडयत्।
