Forgetting his poignant and unbearable pains, Duryodhana began to assail Vasudeva with keen and bitter words. 'O son of Kansa's slave, it seems you have no shame, for you have forgotten that I have been struck down most unfairly, according to the rules of inacefighting? It was you who unfairly caused this act by reminding Bhima about the breaking of my thighs. Do you think I did not mark it when Arjuna (under your advice) hinted to it to Bhima?
दुर्योधनो वासुदेवं वाग्भिरुग्राभिरार्दयत्। कंसदासस्य दायाद न ते लज्जाऽस्त्यनेन वै॥ अधर्मेण गदायुद्धे यदहं विनिपातितः। ऊरू भिन्धीति भीमस्य स्मृति मिथ्या प्रयच्छता॥ किं न विज्ञातमेतन्मे यदर्जुनमवोचथाः।
