Sanskrit Original
प्राच्यां नृपानेकरथेन जित्वा वृकोदरः सानुचरान् रणेषु। स्वस्त्यागमद् योऽतिरथस्तरस्वी सोऽयं वने क्लिश्यति चीरवासाः॥ यः सिन्धुकूले व्यजयवृदेवान् समागतान् दाक्षिणात्यान् महीपान्। तं पश्यतेमं सहदेवमद्य तरस्विनं तापसवेषरूपम्॥
This powerful hero, this Vrikodara, conquered single-handed all the rulers of men of the eastern countries along with those who followed them in battle. He returned from the war safe and uninjured. Even he is now miserably passing his days in the forest wearing barks of trees. This mighty-Sahadeva defeated all the kings of the southern countries, those ruler of men who had assembled on the shore of the sea. they now see him in the garb of an anchorite.
