After having stuck down your son, while Vrikodara was thus vaunting and dancing madly, king Yudhisthira said to him-You have wreaked your vengeance (on Duryodhana) and gained your ends by means fair or foul! Cease now, O Bhiima.
तव पुत्रं तथा हत्वा कत्थमानं वृकोदरम्। नृत्यमानं च बहुशो धर्मराजोऽब्रवीदिदम्॥ गतोऽसि वैरस्यानृण्यं प्रतिज्ञा पूरिता त्वया। शुभेनाथाशुभेनैव कर्मणा विरमाधुना॥
