Or let the king Drupada with his sons and ail his ministers of state be tempted by the presents of large wealth, so that they may abandon the cause of the son of Kunti, Yudhishthira. Or let them (our spies) speak to each of them separately the inconvenience of this place (Hastinapur) and induce them to live there (in Panchala.) Thus separated from the Kurus, they may live permanently there.
अथवा द्रुपदो राजा महद्भिर्वित्तसंचयैः। पुत्राश्चास्य प्रलोभ्यन्ताममात्याश्चैव सर्वशः॥ परित्यजेद् यथा राजा कुन्तीपुत्रं युधिष्ठिरम्। अथ तत्रैव वा तेषां निवासं रोचयन्तु ते॥ इहैषां दोषवद्वासं वर्णयन्तु पृथक् पृथक्। ते भिद्यमानास्तत्रैव मनः कुर्वन्तु पाण्डवाः॥
