O Suta, how was my son Dushasana slain, while that one of low spirit, that wretched one of little prowess, was flying away from the battle? O son, O Suta, has he not acted in a cowardly manner? Was not that hero slain, even as the other Kshatriyas were slain?
पलायमानः कृपणे दीनात्मा दीनपौरुषः॥ कचिद् विनिहतः सूत पुत्रो दुःशासनो मम। कचिन्न दीनाचरितं कृतवांस्तात संयुगे॥ कचिन्न निहतः शूरो यथाऽन्ये क्षत्रियर्षभाः।
