वैशंपायन उवाच । तत्तु वाक्यमनादृत्य सोऽर्थवन्मातृभाषितम् । पुनः प्रतस्थे संरम्भात्सकाशमकृतात्मनाम्॥५-१२८-१॥

Vaiśaṃpāyana said: Disregarding that meaningful statement spoken by his mother, he again departed in agitation toward those who lacked self-mastery.

english translation

ततः सभाया निर्गम्य मन्त्रयामास कौरवः । सौबलेन मताक्षेण राज्ञा शकुनिना सह॥५-१२८-२॥

Then, leaving the assembly hall, the Kaurava conferred with King Śakuni of Saubala, renowned for his calculated judgment.

english translation

दुर्योधनस्य कर्णस्य शकुनेः सौबलस्य च । दुःशासनचतुर्थानामिदमासीद्विचेष्टितम्॥५-१२८-३॥

This was the coordinated initiative of Duryodhana, Karṇa, Śakuni the Saubala, and Duḥśāsana as the fourth among them.

english translation

पुरायमस्मान्गृह्णाति क्षिप्रकारी जनार्दनः । सहितो धृतराष्ट्रेण राज्ञा शांतनवेन च॥५-१२८-४॥

‘Before long, this swift-acting Janārdana will take action against us, supported by King Dhṛtarāṣṭra and the Śāṃtanava ruler.’

english translation

वयमेव हृषीकेशं निगृह्णीम बलादिव । प्रसह्य पुरुषव्याघ्रमिन्द्रो वैरोचनिं यथा॥५-१२८-५॥

‘We ourselves should restrain Hṛṣīkeśa by force, just as Indra once subdued Virocana’s son.’
