Seeing Arjuna dead with his bow and arrow lying scattered and also Bhimasena and the twins lying motionless with life extinct, Yudhishthira breathing out a long and hot sigh was bathed in tears caused by grief. Afflicted with anxiety at beholding all his brothers lying dead. The mighty-armed son of Dharma gave bent to a great profusion of grief
विनिकीर्णधनुर्बाणं दृष्ट्वा निहतमर्जुनम्। भीमसेनं यमौ चैव निर्विचेष्टान् गतायुषः॥ स दीर्घमुष्णं नि:श्वस्य शोकवाष्पपरिप्लुतः। तान् दृष्ट्वा पतितान् भ्रातृन् सर्वांश्चिन्तासमन्वितः॥ धर्मपुत्रो महाबाहुर्विललाप सुविस्तरम्।
