तं भीमसेनो नवभिः सहदेवश् च पञ्चभिः ॥
युधिष्ठिरः शतेनैव राक्षसं प्रत्यविध्यत ॥
नकुलश् च चतुःषष्ट्या द्रौपदेयास् त्रिभिस् त्रिभिः ॥
हैडिम्बो राक्षसं विद्ध्वा युद्धे पञ्चाशता शरैः ॥
पुनर् विव्याध सप्तत्या ननाद च महाबलः ॥
taṃ bhīmaseno navabhiḥ sahadevaś ca pañcabhiḥ ||
yudhiṣṭhiraḥ śatenaiva rākṣasaṃ pratyavidhyata ||
nakulaś ca catuḥṣaṣṭyā draupadeyās tribhis tribhiḥ ||
haiḍimbo rākṣasaṃ viddhvā yuddhe pañcāśatā śaraiḥ ||
punar vivyādha saptatyā nanāda ca mahābalaḥ ||
Bhimasena struck him back with nine arrows, Sahadeva with five, and Yudhishthira with a full hundred; and Hidimba's son [Ghatotkacha], having pierced the rakshasa in battle with fifty arrows, struck again with seventy and roared, mighty as he was.

All the Pandavas, even the King of Dharma himself with a hundred arrows, strike the one rakshasa: the overcoming of evil is a shared undertaking, in which the whole righteous company takes part. It is telling that even the gentle Yudhishthira contributes the greatest share. The verse teaches that the struggle against untruth is not a lone hero's feat but a common effort; and when all the righteous stand as one against darkness, even the most peaceable among them lends his strength to that accord, for the cause of dharma is everyone's cause.
