ततः शब्दः समभवत्समुद्रस्येव पर्वणि । हृष्टानां संप्रयातानां घोषो दिवमिवास्पृशत्॥५-१४९-५१॥

Then a roar arose like that of the ocean at the time of full tide; the acclaim of those exultant and marching forth seemed to touch the sky.

प्रहृष्टा दंशिता योधाः परानीकविदारणाः । तेषां मध्ये ययौ राजा कुन्तीपुत्रो युधिष्ठिरः॥५-१४९-५२॥

The warriors were exhilarated and fully equipped, skilled at rending opposing formations. In their midst advanced the king, Yudhiṣṭhira, son of Kuntī.

There were also wagon-stalls and market-tents, every kind of transport and draft-gear; stores as well as devices and weaponry, and physicians too, with attendants skilled in healing.

फल्गु यच्च बलं किंचित्तथैव कृशदुर्बलम् । तत्संगृह्य ययौ राजा ये चापि परिचारकाः॥५-१४९-५४॥

Gathering whatever scant strength remained, even those who were lean and bodily weak, the king set out, accompanied by his attendants as well.

At Upaplavya, Pāñcālī—Draupadī, famed for truthfulness—remained behind with the women, surrounded by female and male servants.
