Mbh.4.11.423 | Know me, O king of men, to be Vrihannala, a son or daughter without father or mother' |
Mbh.4.11.424 | Virata said, O Vrihannala, I give thee what thou desirest. |
Mbh.4.11.429 | Vaisampayana continued, The king of the Matsyas then tested Vrihannala in dancing, music, and other fine arts, and consulting with his various ministers forthwith caused him to be examined by women. |
Mbh.4.24.1094 | Sairindhri replied, O blessed Vrihannala, always passing thy days happily in the apartments of the girls, what concern hast thou with Sairindhri's fate to say? |
Mbh.4.24.1097 | Thereat Vrihannala said, O blessed one, Vrihannala also hath unparalleled sorrows of her own. |
Mbh.4.36.1455 | And the hero said, Do thou, O beauteous one, at my request say unto Uttara without delay, This Vrihannala was formerly the accomplished resolute charioteer of Pandu's son Arjuna. |
Mbh.4.36.1458 | And bashfully stepping out from among the women, the poor princess of Panchala gently spake unto him these words, The handsome youth, looking like a mighty elephant and known by the name of Vrihannala, was formerly the charioteer of Arjuna. |
Mbh.4.36.1464 | Thou knowest, what this one of the neuter sex may or may not be, I cannot, however, O blessed one, myself request Vrihannala to hold the reins of my horses' |
Mbh.4.36.1465 | Draupadi said, Vrihannala, O hero, will without doubt, obey the words of thy younger sister, that damsel of graceful hips. |
Mbh.4.36.1467 | Thus addressed by the Sairindhri, Uttara spake unto his sister, Go thyself, O thou of faultless beauty, and bring Vrihannala hither' |
Mbh.4.37.1477 | And having approached that bull among men, the princess, standing in the midst of her female attendants, the displaying proper modesty, addressed him, saying, The kine of this realm, O Vrihannala, are being driven away by the Kurus, and it is to conquer them that my brother will set out bow in hand. |
Mbh.4.37.1479 | And unto him striving to obtain a charioteer, Sairindhri, O Vrihannala, hath spoken about thy skill in the management of steeds. |
Mbh.4.37.1481 | Do thou, therefore, O Vrihannala, act as the charioteer of my brother. |
Mbh.4.37.1489 | Do thou, therefore, O Vrihannala, hold, as thou didst, the reins of my steeds, desirous as I am of righting with the Kurus and rescuing my bovine wealth. |
Mbh.4.37.1491 | Thus addressed, Vrihannala replied unto the prince, saying, What ability have I to act as a charioteer in the field of battle? |
Mbh.4.37.1493 | Uttara said, O Vrihannala, be thou a singer or a dancer, hold thou for the present, without loss of time, the reins of my excellent steeds, mounting upon my car' |
Mbh.4.37.1496 | And seeing him quite ignorant of putting on armour, Uttara himself equipped Vrihannala with a costly coat of mail. |
Mbh.4.37.1497 | And casing his own person in an excellent armour of solar effulgence, and hoisting his standard bearing the figure of a lion, the prince caused Vrihannala to become his charioteer. |
Mbh.4.37.1498 | And with Vrihannala to hold his reins, the hero set out, taking with him many costly bows and a large number of beautiful arrows. |
Mbh.4.37.1499 | And his friend, Uttara and her maidens then said unto Vrihannala, Do thou, O Vrihannala, bring for our dolls when thou comest back various kinds of good and fine cloths after vanquishing the Kurus assembled for battle of whom Bhishma and Drona are foremost' |
Mbh.4.37.1503 | Just, however, as they were starting elderly dames and maidens, and Brahmanas of rigid vows, beholding Uttara seated on his excellent car with Vrihannala as charioteer and under that great banner hoisted on high, walked round the car to bless the hero. |
Mbh.4.37.1504 | And the women said, Let the victory that Arjuna treading like a bull had achieved of old on the occasion of burning the forest of Khandava, be thine, O Vrihannala, when thou encounterest the Kurus today with prince Uttara |
Mbh.4.38.1523 | Do thou, therefore, O Vrihannala, cease to advance' |
Mbh.4.38.1524 | Vrihannala said, Why dost thou look so pale through fear and enhance the joy of thy foes? |
Mbh.4.38.1537 | Let men and women, O Vrihannala, laugh at me. |
Mbh.4.38.1542 | Vrihannala, however, exclaimed, This is not the practice of the brave, this flight of a Kshatriya from the field of battle. |
Mbh.4.38.1561 | And seized by Arjuna, the son of Virata began to lament most woefully like one in great affliction, and said, Listen, O good Vrihannala, O thou of handsome waist. |
Mbh.4.38.1565 | Do thou, O Vrihannala, set me free' |
Mbh.4.41.1608 | Why shouldst thou, O Vrihannala, make me a polluted and unclean bearer of corpses, by compelling me to come in contact with a corpse' |
Mbh.4.41.1609 | Vrihannala said, Thou shalt, O king of kings, remain clean and unpolluted. |
Mbh.4.42.1635 | Asked by me, O Vrihannala, do thou answer me truly. |
Mbh.4.43.1637 | SECTION XLIII Vrihannala said, That about which thou hath first enquired is Arjuna's bow, of world-wide fame, called Gandiva, capable of devastating hostile hosts. |
Mbh.4.66.2591 | And that illustrious hero entered the city of Virata, with a cheerful heart rehabilitating himself as Vrihannala, the car-driver of Uttara' |
Mbh.4.66.2598 | And having vanquished the whole hostile army and recovered the whole of the wealth from the Kurus, the heroic son of Virata returned to the city with Vrihannala as his car-driver |
Mbh.4.67.2604 | And the women and the maidens of the palace and the other females living in the inner apartments joyfully said unto him, Our kine having been seized by the Kurus, Bhuminjaya incensed at this and from excess of bravery hath issued forth alone with only Vrihannala as his second, for vanquishing the six mighty car-warriors, Bhishma the son of Santanu, and Kripa, and Karna, and Duryodhana, and Drona, and Drona's son who have all come with the Kuru army' |
Mbh.4.67.2605 | Vaisampayana continued, Then king Virata, hearing that his brave son had gone forth with only one car and with Vrihannala as his car-driver, became filled with grief, and addressing his chief counsellors, said, Without doubt, the Kauravas and other lords of earth, learning the defeat of the Trigartas, will never keep their ground. |
Mbh.4.67.2611 | Vaisampayana continued, Then king Yudhishthira the just, smilingly said unto the afflicted king Virata, If, O monarch, Vrihannala hath been his charioteer, the foe will never be able to take away thy kine today. |
Mbh.4.67.2617 | I do not, however, regard it strange that thy son should have vanquished the Kurus, for his victory is assured that hath Vrihannala for his charioteer' |
Mbh.4.67.2638 | Upon this, the illustrious king Yudhishthira said, Why should not he conquer that hath Vrihannala for his charioteer' |
Mbh.4.67.2645 | Yudhishthira said, There where Bhishma and Drona and Drona's son and the son of Vikartana and Kripa and king Duryodhana and other royal and mighty car-warriors are assembled or there where Indra himself is surrounded by the Maruts, what other person than Vrihannala can fight, encountering them all! |
Mbh.4.67.2647 | Indeed, it is Vrihannala only whose heart is filled with joy at sight of a terrible conflict. |
Mbh.4.67.2659 | And the porter then, approaching the king, said, Thy son Uttara, waiteth at the gate with Vrihannala as his companion' |
Mbh.4.67.2661 | Then Yudhishthira, the king of t e Kurus, gently whispered unto the ears of the warder, Let Uttara enter alone; Vrihannala must not come in. |
Mbh.4.68.2679 | Vaisampayana continued, When the bleeding had stopped, Vrihannala entered the council-room and having saluted both Virata and Kanka, stood silent. |
