dhṛtarāṣṭra uvāca |
saṃsādhya tu mahātmānaṃ bhīṣmaṃ bhīmaparākramam |
kimakārṣuḥ paraṃ tāta kuravaḥ kālacoditāḥ || 9 ||

"Dhritarashtra said, 'After having wept for the high-souled Bhishma of terrible prowess, what, O son, did the Kauravas, urged by fate, next do? Indeed, when that high-souled and invincible hero was slain, what did the Kauravas do, sunk as they were in an ocean of grief? Indeed, that swelling and highly efficient host of the high-souled Pandavas, would, O Sanjaya, excite the keenest fears of even the three worlds. Tell me, therefore, O Sanjaya, what the (assembled) kings did after Devavrata, that bull of Kura's race, had fallen.'
