Nor did Bhima, nor Arjuna, nor those two foremost of men, the twins Nakula and Sahadeva. Though always forbidden by me, by Gandhari, by Vidura, by Rama the son of Jamadagni, and by the illustrious Vyasa, yet, O Sanjaya, the wicked-minded and sinful Duryodhana with Dushasana always followed the evil counsels of Karna and Subala's son (Shakuni), and behaved maliciously with the Pandavas.
न भीमो नार्जुनश्चैव न यमौ पुरुषर्षभौ। वार्यमाणो मया नित्यं गान्धार्या विदुरेण च॥ जामदग्न्येन रामेण व्यासेन च महात्मना। दुर्योधनो युध्यमानो नित्यमेव हि संजय॥ कर्णस्य मतमास्थाय सौबलस्य च पापकृत्। दुःशासनस्य च तथा पाण्डवान् नान्वचिन्तयत्॥
