Mbh.1.63.3184	From Yudhishthira was born Pritivindhya; from Vrikodara, Sutasoma; from Arjuna, Srutakirti; from Nakula, Satanika; and from Sahadeva, Srutasena of great prowess; and Bhima, in the forest begot on Hidimva a son named Ghatotkacha.
Mbh.1.67.3547	Their names were Pritivindhya, Sutasoma, Srutakirti, Satanika, Nakula, and Srutasena, endued with mighty energy.
Mbh.1.95.5341	And Yudhishthira begat Prativindhya; Bhima, Sutasoma; Arjuna, Srutakriti; Nakula, Satanika; and Sahadeva, Srutakarman.
Mbh.1.222.10874	Prativindhya by Yudhishthira, Sutasoma by Vrikodara, Srutakarman by Arjuna, Satanika by Nakula, and Srutasena by Sahadeva, these were the five heroes and great warriors that Panchali brought forth, like Aditi bringing forth the Adityas.
Mbh.1.222.10876	And because the child that Draupadi bore to Bhimasena was born after Bhima had performed a thousand Soma sacrifices, he came to be called Sutasoma.
Mbh.3.12.674	By my five husbands five sons of exceeding energy have been born of me: Prativindhya by Yudhishthira, Sutasoma by Vrikodara, Srutakirti by Arjuna, Satanika by Nakula and Srutakarman by the youngest, all of them of energy that cannot be baffled.
Mbh.3.164.8286	And when Matali had gone away, that foremost of the royal race, Sakra's son, the high-souled destroyer of all foes made over unto his love, the mother of Sutasoma, beautiful precious gems and ornaments having the splendour of the sun, which had been presented to him by Sakra.
Mbh.3.233.11829	Thy brave sons, Prativindhya by Yudhishthira and Sutasoma by Bhima, and Srutakarman by Arjuna, and Satanika by Nakula, and Srutasena begot by Sahadeva, are well and have become skilled in weapons.
Mbh.6.45.2258	And Vikarna, son to thee, with fleet steeds, rushed against the mighty Sutasoma and the combat between them commenced.
Mbh.6.45.2259	Vikarna, however, although he pierced Sutasoma with many arrows, failed to make him waver.
Mbh.6.45.2260	Neither could Sutasoma make Vikarna waver.
Mbh.6.80.4198	Meanwhile the mighty Sutasoma beholding Srutakarman deprived of his car, caused him to mount upon his own car in the very sight of all the troops.
Mbh.7.23.1110	Whitish yellow steeds bore Sutasoma, the son of Arjuna, whom the latter had obtained from Soma himself.
Mbh.7.23.1112	Endued with effulgence of a thousand moons, and because he also had won great renown in an assembly of the Somakas, he came to be called Sutasoma.
Mbh.7.23.1191	Vivinsati resisted the heroic Sutasoma of great prowess, as the latter advanced towards Drona, scattering showers of arrows.
Mbh.7.23.1192	Sutasoma, however, excited with wrath, pierced his uncle Vivinsati with straight arrows, and cased in mail, stood ready for the combat.
Mbh.7.166.8973	He then ascended the resplendent of Sutasoma.
Mbh.8.25.1073	Shakuni, filled with rage, pierced Sutasoma with many keen shafts, but failed to make the latter tremble like a torrent of water failing to produce any impression upon a mountain.
Mbh.8.25.1074	Beholding that great enemy of his father, Sutasoma covered Shakuni, O Bharata, with many thousands of arrows.
Mbh.8.25.1076	Having checked those shafts with his own keen arrows in battle, Shakuni, filled with rage, struck Sutasoma with three arrows.
Mbh.8.25.1078	Deprived of his steed and car, and having his standard cut off, O sire, the great bowman Sutasoma, jumping down from his car, stood on the Earth, having taken up a good bow.
Mbh.8.25.1082	The warriors that were present there, as also the Siddhas in the firmament, were highly pleased at sight of that wonderful and incredible feat of Sutasoma, inasmuch as he contended on foot with Shakuni staying in his car.
Mbh.8.25.1083	Then Shakuni, with a number of broad-headed shafts of great impetuosity, keen and perfectly straight, cut off, O king, the bow of Sutasoma as also all his quivers.
Mbh.8.25.1084	Bowless, and carless, Sutasoma then, uplifting a scimitar of the hue of the blue lotus and equipped with an ivory handle, uttered a loud shout.
Mbh.8.25.1085	That scimitar of the intelligent Sutasoma of the hue of the clear sky, as it was whirled by that hero, was regarded by Shakuni to be as fatal as the rod of Death.
Mbh.8.25.1089	Filled with rage at this, the son of Subala, O king, once more sped at Sutasoma a number of shafts that resembled snakes of virulent poison.
Mbh.8.25.1090	Aided by his skill and might, Sutasoma cut off even these with his scimitar, displaying his great activity, and possessed as he was of prowess equal to that of Garuda himself.
Mbh.8.25.1092	Thus cut off, half of that large scimitar suddenly fell down on the Earth, while half of it, O Bharata, continued in the grasp of Sutasoma.
Mbh.8.25.1093	Seeing his sword cut off, the mighty car-warrior Sutasoma retreated six steps and then hurled that half of the scimitar which he had in his grasp at his foe.
Mbh.8.25.1095	Then Sutasoma went to the great car of Srutakirti.
Mbh.8.55.3107	And Sutasoma pierced him with nine arrows, and Satanika with seven.
Mbh.8.55.3110	And he pierced Srutakirti with nine arrows and Sutasoma with five, and with eight arrows he pierced Srutakarman, and Prativindya with three.
Mbh.8.82.4999	With a number of broad-headed arrows he then pierced both Satanika and Sutasoma and then cut off the bows of both those heroes.
Mbh.8.82.5010	The high-souled son of Adhiratha then pierced Sutasoma with a very keen shaft.
Mbh.9.10.614	Seeing Nakula carless, the mighty car-warrior Sutasoma, the son of Draupadi, rushed to that spot for rescuing his sire in battle.
Mbh.9.10.615	Mounting then upon the car of Sutasoma, Nakula, that hero of Bharata's race, looked beautiful like a lion upon a mountain.
Mbh.9.10.618	Then Sushena, filled with rage, struck the son of Pandu with three shafts and Sutasoma with twenty in the arms and the chest.
Mbh.10.8.517	The valiant Sutasoma, having pierced the son of Drona with a lance, rushed at him with his uplifted sword.
Mbh.10.8.519	At this, Sutasoma fell down, bereft of life.
