But it not possible for them to come back alive after an encounter with Bhima. Those who foolishly assail Bhimasena when he is inflamed with rage are-like insects rushing on the blazing flames of a fire. Such thinking what the irate Bhima of fearful hands had said to the assembly in the hearing of the Kurus about the slaughter of my sons and beholding the defeat of Karna.
न भीमसेनं सम्प्राप्य निवर्तेत कदाचन। पतङ्गा इव वह्निं ते प्राविशन्नल्पचेतसः॥ ये भीमसेनं संक्रुद्धमन्वधावन् विमोहिताः। यत् तत् सभायां भीमेन मम पुत्रवधाश्रयम्॥ उक्तं संरम्भिणोग्रेण कुरूणां शृण्वतां तदा। तन्नूनमभिसंचिन्त्य दृष्ट्वा कर्ण च निर्जितम्॥
