“Dhritarashtra recounts to Sanjaya, one by one, the events he heard of - Arjuna's winning of Draupadi, the Rajasuya, the dice game and Draupadi's humiliation, the exile, Arjuna's divine weapons, and all the deeds of the great war - after each of which, he says, he had no hope of success. (trans. K.M. Ganguli)”
