Best Panchali passage from text as per me😆:
Volume 8, Chapter 1342 (14)
Though she was always cherished by the king, she was always somewhat haughty, especially
towards Yudhishthira. Having been invited, the wide-hipped and extremely beautiful one glanced
towards her husband
95 and spoke these gentle word 😆
...
. O Indra among kings! If the eldest brother is mad, all the others follow
him. Because you are mad, all the Pandavas will become mad. O lord of men! If these brothers of
yours were not mad, they should have bound you up with the non-believers and ruled the earth. A
person who acts stupidly does not obtain anything that is superior. A person who is on the path
towards madness should be treated with incense, collyrium, treatment through the nose,
102 medicines
and medical remedies. O supreme among the Bharata lineage! I am the worst of all women in the
world. Though I have been oppressed by the enemy, I still wish to remain alive.
Same from KMG:
They whose eldest brother becomes mad, have all to follow him in madness. Through thy madness, O king, all the Pandavas are about to become mad. If, O monarch, these thy brothers were in their senses, they would then have immured thee with all unbelievers (in a prison) and taken upon themselves the government of the earth.
