Ashvatthama's Curse and the Jewel for Draupadi

Verse 1 (10.16.1)

तदाज्ञाय हृषीकेशो विकृष्टं पापकर्मणा । हृष्यमाण इदं वाक्यं द्रौणिं प्रत्यब्रवीत्तदा ॥

tadājñāya hṛṣīkeśo vikṛṣṭaṃ pāpakarmaṇā | hṛṣyamāṇa idaṃ vākyaṃ drauṇiṃ pratyabravīttadā

Knowing that the weapon had been loosed by the evildoer, Hrishikesha, pleased, then spoke these words to Drona's son.

Note on the text: Adhyaya note: the page is the right adhyaya (its rows are labelled 10-16-1 to 10-16-33 and the colophon reads षोडशोऽध्यायः । 16); it is the critical edition's 10.16 (36 verses). The three summary lines above the table are headings, not verses. The input's 33 verses agree with the page row for row except input verses 8-13, which cut the page's verses at the wrong half-lines (the page ends verse 8 at 9a, 9 at 10a, 10 at 11a, 11 at 12a, 12 at 13a); they are rebuilt from the page's own verse-end marks, and input verse 13 also swallowed Vyasa's two lines (13b-c, under the heading 10-16-13x). Not on the page: CE 10.16.5-8 (Ashvatthama's retort and Vasudeva's reply, with star passages 10.16.8a*0068_01-02 and 8c*0069_01-02) and the star line 10.16.15b*0071_01 (vulgate omissions; not added). Glosses printed after the table (10-16-7, 18, 20, 24, 28 and the adhyaya name) are not added. Speakers: the page heads Vaishampayana (verse 1; heading misspelt वैशम्पयन at 10-16-19x, normalised), Vyasa (13), Ashvatthama (15), Draupadi (30). Verses 2-12 are Krishna's speech to Ashvatthama, unheaded (the input carried Vaishampayana over) and given to Vasudeva as in the CE; verses 23-29 are Bhimasena's speech to Draupadi, unheaded (the input carried Vaishampayana over); verses 31-33 are narration (the input carried Draupadi's heading over). The page ends the adhyaya with its colophon and nothing after it. Line 1 reads विकृष्टम् where the CE has visṛṣṭam (recension variant, Wikisource reading kept).

Verse 2 (10.16.2)

विराटस्य सुतां पूर्वं स्नुषां गाण्डीवधन्वनः । उपप्लाव्यगतां दृष्ट्वा ऋतवाग्ब्राह्मणोऽब्रवीत् ॥

virāṭasya sutāṃ pūrvaṃ snuṣāṃ gāṇḍīvadhanvanaḥ | upaplāvyagatāṃ dṛṣṭvā ṛtavāgbrāhmaṇo'bravīt

Once before, seeing the daughter of Virata, the daughter-in-law of the wielder of the Gandiva, when she had come to Upaplavya, a truthful brahmin said:

Note on the text: Corrected ब्रह्मणोऽब्रवीत् → ब्राह्मणोऽब्रवीत् (misprint in Wikisource; the long ā is dropped, "a brahmin said"; the CE has brāhmaṇo 'bravīt). Speaker: Vasudeva (Krishna's speech to Ashvatthama, unheaded; the input carried Vaishampayana over). Line 2 begins ऋतवाक् where the CE has vratavān (recension variant).

Verse 3 (10.16.3)

परिक्षीणेषु कुरुषु पुत्रस्तव भविष्यति । एतदस्य परिक्षित्त्वं गर्भस्थस्य भविष्यति ॥

parikṣīṇeṣu kuruṣu putrastava bhaviṣyati | etadasya parikṣittvaṃ garbhasthasya bhaviṣyati

"When the Kurus have dwindled away, a son will be born to you; and this will be how he comes to be called Parikshit while still in the womb."

Note on the text: Speaker: Vasudeva (Krishna's speech, unheaded; the input carried Vaishampayana over). Line 1 ends भविष्यति where the CE has janiṣyati (recension variant).

Verse 4 (10.16.4)

तस्य तद्वचनं साधोः सत्यमेव भविष्यति । परिक्षिद्भविता ह्येषां पुनर्वंशकरः सुतः ॥

tasya tadvacanaṃ sādhoḥ satyameva bhaviṣyati | parikṣidbhavitā hyeṣāṃ punarvaṃśakaraḥ sutaḥ

That good man's word will come true: Parikshit will be born, a son who will found their line again.

Note on the text: Corrected सत्यमेद्भविष्यति → सत्यमेव भविष्यति (misprint in Wikisource; द for व and the word-break lost; the CE has satyam eva bhaviṣyati). Speaker: Vasudeva (Krishna's speech, unheaded; the input carried Vaishampayana over).

Verse 5 (10.16.5)

त्वां तु कापुरुषं पापं विदुः सर्वे मनीषिणः । असकृत्पापकर्माणं बालजीवितघातकम् ॥

tvāṃ tu kāpuruṣaṃ pāpaṃ viduḥ sarve manīṣiṇaḥ | asakṛtpāpakarmāṇaṃ bālajīvitaghātakam

But you all the wise know as a wretched coward, a sinner, a repeated doer of evil, a killer of the lives of children.

Note on the text: Corrected विंदुः → विदुः (misprint in Wikisource; stray anusvara, "they know"; the CE has viduḥ). Speaker: Vasudeva (Krishna's speech, unheaded; the input carried Vaishampayana over). On the page this verse follows verse 4 directly; the CE's 10.16.5-8 are not in Wikisource (vulgate omission, not added).

Verse 6 (10.16.6)

तस्मात्त्वमस्य पापस्य कर्मणः फलमाप्नुहि । त्रीणि वर्षसहस्राणि चरिष्यसि महीमिमाम् ॥

tasmāttvamasya pāpasya karmaṇaḥ phalamāpnuhi | trīṇi varṣasahasrāṇi cariṣyasi mahīmimām

Therefore receive the fruit of this sinful deed: for three thousand years you will wander over this earth,

Note on the text: Speaker: Vasudeva (Krishna's speech, unheaded; the input carried Vaishampayana over). Lines = CE 10.16.10a, 10.16.10c.

Verse 7 (10.16.7)

अप्राप्नुवन्क्वचित्काञ्चित्संविदं जातु केनचित् । निर्जनानसहायस्त्वं देशान्प्रविचरिष्यसि ॥

aprāpnuvankvacitkāñcitsaṃvidaṃ jātu kenacit | nirjanānasahāyastvaṃ deśānpravicariṣyasi

never finding any converse with anyone anywhere; alone and helpless you will roam through uninhabited lands.

Note on the text: Speaker: Vasudeva (Krishna's speech, unheaded; the input carried Vaishampayana over). Line 1 = CE 10.16.10e, line 2 = CE 10.16.11a (the CE has this as part of a three-line verse; Wikisource divides it into couplets).

Verse 8 (10.16.8)

भवित्री न हि ते क्षुद्र जनमध्येषु संस्थितिः । पूयशोणिगन्धी च दुर्गकान्तारसंश्रयः । विचरिष्यसि पापात्मंश्चिरमेको वसुन्धराम् ॥

bhavitrī na hi te kṣudra janamadhyeṣu saṃsthitiḥ | pūyaśoṇigandhī ca durgakāntārasaṃśrayaḥ | vicariṣyasi pāpātmaṃścirameko vasundharām

O wretch, you will have no dwelling among people; stinking of pus and blood, you will take refuge in difficult wilds and jungles, and roam the earth alone for a long time, O sinful one.

Note on the text: Rebuilt from the raw page (printed 10-16-8a, 8b, 9a; the page ends the verse at 9a, a three-line verse): the input took only the first two lines as verse 8 and gave the third to verse 9. Lines 1-2 = CE 10.16.11c, 12a; line 3 (विचरिष्यसि पापात्मंश्चिरमेको वसुन्धराम्) differs from CE 12c (vicariṣyasi pāpātman sarvavyādhisamanvitaḥ), recension variant, Wikisource reading kept. Speaker: Vasudeva (Krishna's speech, unheaded; the input carried Vaishampayana over).

Verse 9 (10.16.9)

वयः प्राप्य परिक्षित्तु देवव्रतमवाप्य च । कृपाच्छारद्वताच्छूरः सर्वास्त्राण्युपपत्स्यते ॥

vayaḥ prāpya parikṣittu devavratamavāpya ca | kṛpācchāradvatācchūraḥ sarvāstrāṇyupapatsyate

But Parikshit, once grown, will take up the sacred vow and gain all weapons from Kripa, son of Sharadvat; that hero,

Note on the text: Rebuilt from the raw page (printed 10-16-9b, 10a; the input had 9b joined to 9a and 10a joined to 10b). Corrected परिक्षित्तुं → परिक्षित्तु (misprint in Wikisource; stray anusvara, "but Parikshit"; the CE has parikṣit tu). Line 1 reads देवव्रतम् where the CE has vedavratam, and line 2 सर्वास्त्राण्युपपत्स्यते for upalapsyate: recension variants, Wikisource readings kept. Speaker: Vasudeva (Krishna's speech, unheaded; the input carried Vaishampayana over).

Verse 10 (10.16.10)

विदित्वा परमास्त्राणि क्षत्रधर्मव्रते स्थितः । षष्टिं वर्षाणि धर्मात्मा वसुधां पालयिष्यति ॥

viditvā paramāstrāṇi kṣatradharmavrate sthitaḥ | ṣaṣṭiṃ varṣāṇi dharmātmā vasudhāṃ pālayiṣyati

knowing the supreme weapons and standing firm in the vow of the kshatriya's duty, that righteous-souled one will rule the earth for sixty years.

Note on the text: Rebuilt from the raw page (printed 10-16-10b, 11a; the input had these lines paired differently). Corrected वर्षामि → वर्षाणि (misprint in Wikisource; the nasal is wrong, "sixty years"; the CE has varṣāṇi). Speaker: Vasudeva (Krishna's speech, unheaded; the input carried Vaishampayana over).

Verse 11 (10.16.11)

इतश्चोर्ध्वं महाबाहुः कुरुराजो भविष्यति । परिक्षिन्नाम नृपतिर्मिषतस्ते सुदुर्मते ॥

itaścordhvaṃ mahābāhuḥ kururājo bhaviṣyati | parikṣinnāma nṛpatirmiṣataste sudurmate

After that, the mighty-armed one will be king of the Kurus: a king named Parikshit, before your very eyes, O evil-minded one.

Note on the text: Rebuilt from the raw page (printed 10-16-11b, 12a; the input had these lines paired differently). Lines = CE 10.16.15a, 15c. Speaker: Vasudeva (Krishna's speech, unheaded; the input carried Vaishampayana over).

Verse 12 (10.16.12)

अहं तं जीवयिष्यामि दग्धं शस्त्राग्नितेजसा । पश्य मे तपसो वीर्यं सत्यस्य च नराधम ॥

ahaṃ taṃ jīvayiṣyāmi dagdhaṃ śastrāgnitejasā | paśya me tapaso vīryaṃ satyasya ca narādhama

"I will bring him back to life, though burnt by the fire-energy of the weapon. See the power of my austerity and of my truth, O lowest of men."

Note on the text: Rebuilt from the raw page (printed 10-16-12b, 13a; the input had these lines paired differently). The square brackets round line 1 are dropped and the line kept. Line 1 is the CE's star passage 10.16.15c*0070_01 (ahaṃ taṃ jīvayiṣyāmi dagdham astrāgnitejasā; Wikisource has शस्त्राग्नि for astrāgni, a recension variant, kept); line 2 = CE 10.16.15e. Speaker: Vasudeva (Krishna's speech, unheaded; the input carried Vaishampayana over).

Verse 13 (10.16.13)

यस्मादनादृत्य कृतं त्वयाऽस्मान्कर्म दारुणम् । ब्राह्मणस्य सतश्चेदं वृत्तमन्यायवर्तिनः ॥

yasmādanādṛtya kṛtaṃ tvayā'smānkarma dāruṇam | brāhmaṇasya sataścedaṃ vṛttamanyāyavartinaḥ

"Because you have done this dreadful deed, disregarding us, and this conduct of yours, brahmin though you are, is the conduct of one who follows the path of injustice,

Note on the text: Rebuilt from the raw page (printed 10-16-13b, 13c under the heading व्यास उवाच, 10-16-13x): the input had these two lines tacked on to Krishna's last line (13a, now the end of verse 12) as one three-line verse under Vaishampayana. Speaker: Vyasa. Line 1 = CE 10.16.16a; line 2 differs from CE 16c (brāhmaṇasya sataś caiva yasmāt te vṛttam īdṛśam), recension variant, Wikisource reading kept.

Verse 14 (10.16.14)

तस्माद्यद्देवकीपुत्र उक्तवानुत्तमं वचः । आलोकात्तव तद्भावि क्षुद्रकर्मन्व्रजेति ह ॥

tasmādyaddevakīputra uktavānuttamaṃ vacaḥ | ālokāttava tadbhāvi kṣudrakarmanvrajeti ha

therefore, what the son of Devaki said, that excellent word, will come to pass for you in the sight of the world; go, you of mean deeds."

Note on the text: Corrected उक्वानुत्तमं → उक्तवानुत्तमं (misprint in Wikisource; the त is dropped, "said"; the CE has uktavān uttamaṃ). Speaker: Vyasa (the page's heading 10-16-13x; the input has Vyasa here too). Line 2 (आलोकात्तव तद्भावि क्षुद्रकर्मन्व्रजेति ह) differs from CE 17c (asaṃśayaṃ te tad bhāvi kṣudrakarman vrajāśv itaḥ), recension variant, Wikisource reading kept.

Verse 15 (10.16.15)

सहैव भवता ब्रह्मन्स्थास्यामि पुरुषेष्विह । सत्यवागस्तु भगवानयं च पुरुषोत्तमः ॥

sahaiva bhavatā brahmansthāsyāmi puruṣeṣviha | satyavāgastu bhagavānayaṃ ca puruṣottamaḥ

"O brahmin, I will live among men here together with you; and may your holiness speak the truth, and this Supreme Person too."

Verse 16 (10.16.16)

प्रदायाथ मणिं द्रौणिः पाण्डवानां महात्मनाम् । जगाम विमनास्तेषां सर्वेषां पश्यतां वनम् ॥

pradāyātha maṇiṃ drauṇiḥ pāṇḍavānāṃ mahātmanām | jagāma vimanāsteṣāṃ sarveṣāṃ paśyatāṃ vanam

Then Drona's son gave the jewel to the great-souled Pandavas and, dejected, went away to the forest while they all watched.

Verse 17 (10.16.17)

पाण्डवाश्च सदाशार्हास्तानृषीनभिवाद्य च । कृष्णद्वैपायनं चैव नारदं चैव पर्वतम् ॥

pāṇḍavāśca sadāśārhāstānṛṣīnabhivādya ca | kṛṣṇadvaipāyanaṃ caiva nāradaṃ caiva parvatam

And the Pandavas, together with the Dasharha (Krishna), having saluted those sages, Krishna Dvaipayana, Narada and Parvata,

Note on the text: Line 1 differs from CE 10.16.20a (Wikisource: पाण्डवाश्च सदाशार्हास्तानृषीनभिवाद्य च; CE: pāṇḍavāś cāpi govindaṃ puraskṛtya hatadviṣaḥ), and line 2 ends पर्वतम् where CE 20c has mahāmunim: recension variants, Wikisource reading kept (the automatic alignment found no match; the CE verse sits in critical_edition_unmatched as 10.16.20).

Verse 18 (10.16.18)

द्रोणपुत्रस्य सहजं मणिमादाय सत्वराः । द्रौपदीमभ्यधावन्त प्रायोपेतां मनस्विनीम् ॥

droṇaputrasya sahajaṃ maṇimādāya satvarāḥ | draupadīmabhyadhāvanta prāyopetāṃ manasvinīm

took Drona's son's innate jewel and hastened to the resolute Draupadi, who had set herself to fast until death.

Verse 19 (10.16.19)

ततस्ते पुरुषव्याघ्राः सदश्वैरनिलोपमैः । अभ्ययुः सहदाशार्हाः शिबिरं पुनरेव हि ॥

tataste puruṣavyāghrāḥ sadaśvairanilopamaiḥ | abhyayuḥ sahadāśārhāḥ śibiraṃ punareva hi

Then those tigers among men, with the Dasharha, went back to the camp on excellent horses swift as the wind.

Note on the text: Speaker: Vaishampayana (the input's वैशम्पयन is the misprint of the page's heading 10-16-19x, normalised here and in verses 20-29).

Verse 20 (10.16.20)

अवतीर्य रथेभ्यस्तु त्वरमाणा महारथाः । ददृशुर्द्रौपदीं हृष्टामार्तामार्ततराः स्वयम् ॥

avatīrya rathebhyastu tvaramāṇā mahārathāḥ | dadṛśurdraupadīṃ hṛṣṭāmārtāmārtatarāḥ svayam

Descending quickly from their chariots, the great warriors saw Draupadi, joyful and yet stricken with grief, themselves still more stricken.

तामुपेत्य निरानन्दां दुःखशोकसमन्विताम् । परिवार्य व्यतिष्ठन्त पाण्डवाः सहकेशवाः ॥

tāmupetya nirānandāṃ duḥkhaśokasamanvitām | parivārya vyatiṣṭhanta pāṇḍavāḥ sahakeśavāḥ

Approaching her, joyless and weighed down with sorrow and grief, the Pandavas with Keshava stood around her.

Verse 22 (10.16.22)

ततो राज्ञाऽभ्यनुज्ञातो भीमसेनो महाबलः । प्रददौ तं मणिं दिव्यं वचनं चेदमब्रवीत् ॥

tato rājñā'bhyanujñāto bhīmaseno mahābalaḥ | pradadau taṃ maṇiṃ divyaṃ vacanaṃ cedamabravīt

Then, with the king's leave, mighty Bhimasena gave her that divine jewel and spoke these words:

Verse 23 (10.16.23)

अयं भद्रे तव मणिः पुत्रहन्ता जितश्च ते । उत्तिष्ठ शोकमुत्सृज्य क्षात्रधर्ममनुस्मर ॥

ayaṃ bhadre tava maṇiḥ putrahantā jitaśca te | uttiṣṭha śokamutsṛjya kṣātradharmamanusmara

"Here is your jewel, good lady; the killer of your sons has been conquered for you. Rise, put away your grief, and remember the duty of a kshatriya.

When Vasudeva set out for the sake of peace, O dark-eyed one, the words you spoke, O fair lady, to the slayer of Madhu,

Note on the text: Corrected शमार्थवसितेक्षणे → शमार्थमसितेक्षणे (misprint in Wikisource; व for म, which leaves no parsable word; the CE has śamārtham asitekṣaṇe). Speaker: Bhimasena (unheaded; the input carried Vaishampayana over). Line 2 ends मधुघातिनि (locative, glossed on the page as मधुदैत्यहन्तरि) where the CE has madhughātinaḥ; recension variant, kept.

vairasya gatamānṛṇyaṃ na sma vācyā vivakṣatām | jitvā mukto droṇaputro brāhmaṇyādgauraveṇa ca

The debt of enmity is paid; none who wish to speak can blame us. Drona's son, conquered, was let go out of respect for his brahminhood.

Verse 29 (10.16.29)

यशोऽस्य पतितं देवि शरीरं त्ववशेषितम् । वियोजितश्च मणिना भ्रंशितश्चायुधं भुवि ॥
