The news of Duryodhana's birth was carried to Bhishma and the wise Vidura. On the day when haughty Duryodhana was born, on that very day was born mighty armed and greatly powerful Bhima. O king, as soon as that son of Dhritarashtra (Duryodhana) was born, he roared and brayed like an ass, Hearing that sound, the arsons vultures, jackals and crows spontaneously cried.
तदाख्यातं तु भीष्माय विदुराय च धीमते। यस्मिन्नहनि दुर्धर्षो जज्ञे दुर्योधनस्तदा॥ तस्मिन्नेव महाबाहुर्जज्ञे भीमोऽपि वीर्यवान्। स जातमात्र एवाथ धृतराष्ट्रसुतो नृप॥ रासभारावसदृशं रुराव च ननाद च। तं खरा: प्रत्यभाषन्त गृध्रगोमायुवायसाः॥
