Sahadeva said: O king, O descendant of Bharata, seeing his bed of grass empty in our hermitage without that Jishnu, who, having vanquished powerful warriors in battle, won wealth and virgins and brought them to the king at the time of the great sacrifice, without that immeasurably effulgent hero who having vanquished singlehanded all the Yadavas took possession of Subhadra with the consent of Vasudeva (Krishna), who having invaded the kingdom of the illustrious Drupada, gave to the preceptor Drona his tuition-fee by securing for him half of Drupada's kingdom, my mind by no means gets any consolation. O chastiser of foes, to go away from this forest to some other forest is what I would prefer, for in the absence of that hero this forest can by no means be delightful.
