Sexual Life in Ancient India: A Study in the Comparative History of Indian Culture v2.c18.14

v2.c18.14

“Go, fetch Draupadī, O Prātikāmin:
Thou needst no longer fear the Pāṇḍavas,
Only Vidura is filled with fear, and does dispute;
And he, indeed, ne’er wished our highest good.”
Thus addressed, the Sūta swiftly went,
Prātikāmin went at the king’s word;
Even as a dog goes into the lions’ abode,
So drew he nigh unto the Pāṇḍavas’ wife.
