Beholding the army of the Pandavas swelling with might and energy, what behaviour did the Kuru prince Suyodhana adopt towards the Pandavas, thinking it suitable to the hour? I desire to hear all this. Tell me, O foremost of regenerate ones, I am never satiated with listening to the grand feats of my ancestors." > — Kisari Mohan Ganguli 1883, The Mahabharata of Krishna-Dwaipayana Vyasa - [Previous: 9.1.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.lit.mahabharata.vyasa.9.1.1) - [Next: 9.1.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.lit.mahabharata.vyasa.9.1.3) - [Up: 9.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.lit.mahabharata.vyasa.9.1) ## Translations (1) - [The Mahabharata of Krishna-Dwaipayana Vyasa](https://indike.org/pramana/in.lit.mahabharata.vyasa~en-ganguli.9.1.3) — Kisari Mohan Ganguli 1883, English ## Commentaries (1) - [Bhāratabhāvadīpa](https://indike.org/pramana/in.lit.mahabharata.vyasa!nilakantha.9.1.2) — Nīlakaṇṭha Caturdhara 1650, Sanskrit ## Other recensions (2) - [Southern recension](https://indike.org/pramana/in.lit.mahabharata.vyasa*southern.9.1.3) — Sanskrit - [Vulgate (Nīlakaṇṭha's text)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.lit.mahabharata.vyasa*vulgate.9.1.2) — Sanskrit --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.lit.mahabharata.vyasa.9.1.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.lit.mahabharata.vyasa.9.1.2) · Pramāṇa
