"What shall I do? Where shall I go? How can my purpose be achieved?" Thinking thus, she turned her mind to Bhima: "No one but Bhima can do today what my heart desires."

Note on the text: Lines 1–3 are CE 4.16.3cd, 4.16.4ab and a variant of 4.16.4cd (nānyaḥ kartā ṛte bhīmān mamādya manasaḥ priyam).

Verse 5 (4.22.5)

Verse 9 (4.22.9)

परिस्पृश्य च पाणिभ्यां पतिं सुप्तमबोधयत् । श्रीरिवान्या महोत्साहं सुप्तं विष्णुमिवार्णवे । क्षौमावदाते शयने शयानं वृषभेक्षणम् ॥

Touching him with her hands, she woke her sleeping husband, the bull-eyed one lying on a bed spread with spotless linen, like a second Shri waking the mighty Vishnu asleep upon the ocean;

Note on the text: Corrected परिस्पृस्य → परिस्पृश्य (misprint in Wikisource; the apparatus reads parispṛśya). Not in the critical edition's text (found in the vulgate recension); the critical edition records it in its apparatus as 4.16.7f*0347, lines 1–3.

यथा शची देवराजं रुद्राणी शंकरं यथा । ब्रह्माणमिव सावित्री देवसेना गुहं यथा ॥

yathā śacī devarājaṃ rudrāṇī śaṃkaraṃ yathā | brahmāṇamiva sāvitrī devasenā guhaṃ yathā

as Shachi wakes the king of the gods, as Rudrani wakes Shankara, as Savitri wakes Brahma, as Devasena wakes Guha;

"Get up, get up! Why do you lie there like a dead man, Bhimasena? He is not dead — that most wicked man who laid hands on your wife is still alive!

Note on the text: Speaker set to Draupadi: Wikisource carries the narrator's heading over, but verses 13–14 are her words to Bhima, announced in verse 12. The CE's second line reads nāmṛtasya hi pāpīyān bhāryām ālabhya jīvati.

Verse 14 (4.22.14)

तस्मिञ्जीवति पापिष्ठे सेनावाहे मम द्विषि । तत्कर्म कृतवत्यद्य कथं निद्रां निषेवसे ॥

tasmiñjīvati pāpiṣṭhe senāvāhe mama dviṣi | tatkarma kṛtavatyadya kathaṃ nidrāṃ niṣevase

While that most sinful commander, my enemy, still lives after doing that deed today, how can you give yourself to sleep?"

Hearing that voice, Vrikodara, best of the Kurus, who had been sleeping peacefully, was roused like a great elephant stung by goads.

Note on the text: Not in the critical edition's text (found in the vulgate recension); the critical edition records it in its apparatus as 4.16.10d*0350, under a vaiśaṃpāyanaḥ heading as in Wikisource.

स वै विहाय शयनं यस्मिन्सुप्तः प्रबोधितः । उदतिष्ठदमेयात्मा पर्यङ्के सोत्तरच्छदे ॥

Note on the text: Corrected दुर्धर्पः → दुर्धर्षः (misprint in Wikisource; प for ष; the apparatus reads durdharṣaḥ). Line 1 is in the CE apparatus as 4.16.11d*0351 (upaviśya ca durdharṣaḥ …); line 2 is CE 4.16.12ab.

kenārthena ca saṃprāptā tvariteva mamāntikam | na te prakṛtimānvarṇaḥ kṛśā tvamabhilakṣyase

"For what purpose have you come to me in such haste? Your colour is not as it should be; you look worn and thin.

Note on the text: Speaker set to Bhima: Wikisource carries the narrator over, but verses 18–22 are Bhima's words, announced in verse 17. Line 1 is a variant of CE 4.16.12cd; line 2 is a variant of 4.16.13ab (kṛśā pāṇḍuś ca lakṣyase).

prakāśaṃ yadi vā guhyaṃ sarvamākhyātumarhasi | ācakṣva tvamaśeṣeṇa sarvaṃ vidyāmahaṃ yathā

Whether it is open or secret, you should tell me all of it. Tell me everything, leaving nothing out, so that I may know it.

Be it joy or sorrow, good or ill — even if the deed is hard to do, take it as already done.

Note on the text: Line 1 is a variant of CE 4.16.14ab; line 2 is not in the critical edition (found in the vulgate recension). Speaker Bhima (see verse 18).

Verse 21 (4.22.21)

अहमेव हि ते कृष्णे विश्वास्यः सर्वकर्मसु । अहमापत्सु चापि त्वां मोक्षयामि पुनः पुनः ॥

ahameva hi te kṛṣṇe viśvāsyaḥ sarvakarmasu | ahamāpatsu cāpi tvāṃ mokṣayāmi punaḥ punaḥ

I alone am the one you can trust in everything, Krishna; I am the one who rescues you from danger again and again.

Verse 22 (4.22.22)

शीघ्रमुक्त्वा यथाकामं यत्ते कार्यं विवक्षितम् । गच्छ वै शयनायैव यावदन्यो न बुध्यते ॥

śīghramuktvā yathākāmaṃ yatte kāryaṃ vivakṣitam | gaccha vai śayanāyaiva yāvadanyo na budhyate

Say quickly whatever you wish, whatever you have come to tell me, and then go back to your bed before anyone else wakes."

सा लज्जमाना भीता च अधोमुखमुखी ततः । नोवाच किंचिद्वचनं बाष्पदूषितलोचना ॥

sā lajjamānā bhītā ca adhomukhamukhī tataḥ | novāca kiṃcidvacanaṃ bāṣpadūṣitalocanā

Ashamed and afraid, she hung her head and said nothing, her eyes dimmed with tears.

Note on the text: Corrected लञ्जमाना → लज्जमाना (misprint in Wikisource; the apparatus reads lajjamānā). Not in the critical edition's text (found in the vulgate recension); the critical edition records it in its apparatus as 4.16.16d*0353, lines 1–2.

अथाब्रवीद्भीमपराक्रमो बली वृकोदरः पाण्डवमुख्यसंमतः । प्रब्रूहि किं ते करवाणि सुन्दरि प्रियं प्रिये वारणमत्तगामिनि ॥

athābravīdbhīmaparākramo balī vṛkodaraḥ pāṇḍavamukhyasaṃmataḥ | prabrūhi kiṃ te karavāṇi sundari priyaṃ priye vāraṇamattagāmini

Then mighty Vrikodara of fearsome valour, honoured by the chief of the Pandavas, said: "Speak, lovely one — what may I do for you? What would please you, my love, you who move with the grace of an elephant in its prime?"

Note on the text: Not in the critical edition's text (found in the vulgate recension); the critical edition records it in its apparatus as 4.16.16d*0353, lines 3–6 (ending vāraṇakhelagāmini). Its first half is narration and its second Bhima's words; Wikisource prints no heading between them, so the verse stays with the narrator.

Verse 25 (4.22.25)

अशोच्यता कुतस्तस्या यस्या भर्ता युधिष्ठिरः । जानन्सर्वाणि दुःखानि किं मां भीमानुपृच्छसि ॥

yanmāṃ dāsīpravādena prātikāmī tadā'nayat | sabhāyāṃ pariṣanmadhye tanme marmāṇi kṛntati

That the usher Pratikamin dragged me into the hall before the assembly, calling me a slave-woman — that cuts me to the quick.

Note on the text: A variant of CE 4.17.2, whose second line reads sabhāyāṃ pārṣado madhye tan māṃ dahati bhārata.

Verse 27 (4.22.27)

विकृष्टा हास्तिनपुरे सभायां राजसंसदि । दुःशासनेन केशान्ते परामृष्टा रजस्वला ॥

vikṛṣṭā hāstinapure sabhāyāṃ rājasaṃsadi | duḥśāsanena keśānte parāmṛṣṭā rajasvalā

and so I was seen by the kshatriyas there, Karna and the rest, by Duryodhana, by my two fathers-in-law, by Bhishma and wise Vidura, by Drona, mighty-armed one, and by Kripa, scorcher of foes.

Note on the text: Not in the critical edition's text (found in the vulgate recension); the critical edition records it in its apparatus as 4.17.2d*0354, lines 3–5.

sā'haṃ śvaśurayormadhye bhrātṛmadhye ca pāṇḍava | keśe gṛhītvā ca sabhāṃ nītā jīvati vai tvayi

Seized by the hair, I was dragged into the hall between my fathers-in-law and among the brothers, Pandava, while you were alive.

Note on the text: Not in the critical edition's text (found in the vulgate recension); the critical edition records it in its apparatus as 4.17.2d*0354, lines 6–7 (which read bhartṛmadhye, "among my husbands").

Then, torn from the kingdom, I went to the forest; there I lived a hard life, worn out by journeying, and through Jatasura's assault I came into great danger as well.

Note on the text: Corrected वसती → वसन्ती (misprint in Wikisource; dropped anusvara; the apparatus reads vasantī). Not in the critical edition's text (found in the vulgate recension); the critical edition records it in its apparatus as 4.17.2d*0355, lines 1–3.

पार्थिवस्य सुता नाम का नु जीवेत मादृशी । अनुभूय भृशं दुःखमन्यत्र द्रौपदीं प्रभो ॥

pārthivasya sutā nāma kā nu jīveta mādṛśī | anubhūya bhṛśaṃ duḥkhamanyatra draupadīṃ prabho

What king's daughter like me would go on living after suffering such sorrow — save Draupadi alone, my lord?

Note on the text: Corrected कानु जीवेन → का नु जीवेत (misprint in Wikisource; the CE reads kā nu jīveta, as Wikisource itself does in verse 37).

Verse 32 (4.22.32)

वनवासगता चाहं सैन्धवेन दुरात्मना । परामृष्टा द्वितीयं च सोढुमुत्सहते तु का ॥

vanavāsagatā cāhaṃ saindhavena durātmanā | parāmṛṣṭā dvitīyaṃ ca soḍhumutsahate tu kā

I wandered on foot through rough and broken lands, impassable and full of beasts of prey, while you, a Pandava, were alive.

tato'haṃ dvādaśe varṣe vanyamūlaphalāśanā | idaṃ puramanuprāptā sudeṣṇāparicārikā | parastriyamupātiṣṭhe satyadharmaparāyaṇā

Then in the twelfth year, after living on wild roots and fruits, I came to this city as Sudeshna's maid; though devoted to truth and dharma, I wait upon another woman.

Yet for your sake I count these many sorrows as nothing.

Note on the text: Corrected बहूनिः → बहूनि (misprint in Wikisource; stray visarga). Not in the critical edition's text (found in the vulgate recension); the critical edition records it in its apparatus as 4.17.4d*0356, line 8 — a single line there too.

मत्स्यराजसमक्षं तु तस्य धूर्तस्य पश्यतः । कीचकेन पदा स्पृष्टा का नु जीवेत मादृशी ॥

matsyarājasamakṣaṃ tu tasya dhūrtasya paśyataḥ | kīcakena padā spṛṣṭā kā nu jīveta mādṛśī

But to be kicked by Kichaka in the presence of the Matsya king, while that gambler looked on — what woman like me could live after that?

I am tormented thus by sorrows of many kinds, Pandava, and you take no notice of me, son of Kunti. What use is my life?

hasantyantaḥpure nāryo mama ceṣṭāṃ nirīkṣya ca

snehātsaṃvāsajādeva tadā vai cāruhāsinī | yudhyamānaṃ mahāvīryamimaṃ samanuśocati

'It is out of the affection that comes from living together that this sweetly smiling woman grieves for this man of great valour as he fights.

kalyāṇarūpā sairandhrī valalaścāpi sundaraḥ | strīṇāṃ cittaṃ hi durjñeyaṃ yuktarūpau hi me matau

The sairandhri is lovely and Valala too is handsome. A woman's heart is hard to read; to my mind the two are well matched.

Verse 83 (4.22.83)

सैरन्ध्री प्रियसंवासान्नित्यं करुणवादिनी । अस्मिन्राजकुले चैतौ तुल्यकालनिवासिनौ ॥

sairandhrī priyasaṃvāsānnityaṃ karuṇavādinī | asminrājakule caitau tulyakālanivāsinau

The sairandhri always speaks with pity for him, because they are dear companions; and the two of them have lived in this royal house for the same length of time.'

Saying such things, she would needle me continually; and seeing me angry, she suspected me of feeling for you."

Verse 85 (4.22.85)

तस्यां तथा ब्रुवन्त्यां तु भीमो भीमपराक्रमः । नोवाच किंचिद्वचनं संरम्भाद्रक्तलोचनः ॥

tasyāṃ tathā bruvantyāṃ tu bhīmo bhīmaparākramaḥ | novāca kiṃcidvacanaṃ saṃrambhādraktalocanaḥ

While she spoke thus, Bhima of fearsome valour said not a word, his eyes red with fury.

Note on the text: Speaker set to Vaishampayana: this verse is narration (Bhima's silence), though Wikisource prints no heading. Line 1 shares its opening with CE 4.18.8a (tasyāṃ tathā bruvatyāṃ tu) and its close with the apparatus line 4.18.8b*0367 (bhīme bhīmaparākrame); line 2 is in the apparatus as 4.18.8b*0368, line 1.

ज्ञात्वा तु रुषितं भीमं द्रौपदी पुनरब्रवीत् । शोके यौधिष्ठिरे मग्ना नाहं जीवितुमुत्सहे ॥

jñātvā tu ruṣitaṃ bhīmaṃ draupadī punarabravīt | śoke yaudhiṣṭhire magnā nāhaṃ jīvitumutsahe

Seeing that Bhima was enraged, Draupadi spoke again: "Sunk in grief over Yudhishthira, I cannot bear to live.

Note on the text: Removed a stray hyphen (ज्ञात्वा-तु → ज्ञात्वा तु). Speaker set to Vaishampayana: line 1 is narration (CE apparatus 4.18.8b*0368, line 2) introducing Draupadi's words in line 2 (CE 4.18.8cd); Wikisource prints no heading between them.

Verse 87 (4.22.87)

यस्तु देवान्मनुष्यांश्च सर्वानेकरथोऽजयत् । सोऽयं राज्ञो विराटस्य कन्यानां नर्तको युवा । आस्ते वेषप्रतिच्छन्नः कन्यानां परिचारकः ॥

yastu devānmanuṣyāṃśca sarvānekaratho'jayat | so'yaṃ rājño virāṭasya kanyānāṃ nartako yuvā | āste veṣapraticchannaḥ kanyānāṃ paricārakaḥ

He who on a single chariot conquered all gods and men is now a young dance-master to King Virata's daughters, living hidden in disguise as the maidens' attendant.

Note on the text: Corrected यंस्तु → यस्तु (misprint in Wikisource; stray anusvara; the CE reads yaḥ) and सोयं → सोऽयं (missing avagraha). Speaker set back to Draupadi.
