When Virata's kine were seized by them, the Kauravas, overwhelining in number both as regards men and animals and having the preceptor, the preceptor's son and Bhishma amongst them, were defeated by that foremost of men. Why did you not defeat Arjuna then?
समुदितबलवाहनाः पुनः पुरुषवरेण जिताः स्थ गोग्रहे। सगुरुगुरुसुताः सभीष्मकाः किमु न जितः स तदा त्वयाऽर्जुनः॥
