Going before Dhritarashtra, Dalvya begged some animals of him. Finding that some of his kine had died without any cause, the king angrily said to him-"Wretch of a Brahmana, take, if you wish, these (dead) kine.'
स समीपगतो भूत्वा धृतराष्ट्र जनेश्वरम्॥ अयाचत पशून् दाल्भ्यः स चैनं रुषितोऽब्रवीत्। यदृच्छया मृता दृष्ट्वा गास्तदा नृपसत्तमः॥ एतान् पशून् नय क्षिप्रं ब्रह्मबन्धो यदीच्छसि।
