4.63.38

ityuktaḥ kupito rājā matsyaḥ pāṇḍavamabravīt |
samaṃ putreṇa me ṣaṇḍhaṃ brahmabandho praśaṃsasi || 38 ||

'Thus addressed, King Matsya became angry and said unto Pandu's son, 'Thou wretch of a Brahmana, dost thou compare one of the neuter sex with my son! Hast thou no knowledge of what is proper and what improper for one to say? Without doubt, thou disregardest me. Why should not my son vanquish all those with Bhishma and Drona as their leaders? O Brahmana, for friendship only I pardon thee this thy offence.
