2.30.53

tato yudhiṣṭhiro rājā preṣayāmāsa pāṇḍavam |
nakulaṃ hāstinapuraṃ bhīṣmāya bharatarṣabha || 53 ||

Thus commenced on earth the sacrifice of that unrivalled hero, the illustrious son of Pandu, like the sacrifice in heaven of Sakra himself. Then that bull among men, king Yudhishthira despatched Nakula the son of Pandu unto Hastinapura to bring Bhishma and Drona, Dhritarashtra and Vidura and Kripa and those amongst his cousins that were well-disposed towards him."
