Though I am not now seeing the greatly effulgent prosperity of the son of Kunti, yet knowing the affluence of the foe and my destitution, I (feel as if I) see it before me. For this reason I am colourless melancholy, pale and emaciated.
सपत्नानृध्यतोऽऽत्मानं हीयमानं निशम्य च । अदृश्यामपि कौन्तेयश्रियं पश्यन्निवोद्यताम्॥
