The prince of Panchala, Dhrishtadyumna, a mighty chariot-warrior of ruthless deeds and master of every excellent weapon, will fight against my army. Great is my fear, my child, of Yudhishthira's wrath, of Arjuna's valor, of the Twins, and of Bhimasena. When these lords of men spread their superhuman net of arrows in the midst of my army, I fear my troops will not escape it. It is of this, O Sanjaya, that I weep. This son of Pandu, Yudhishthira, is handsome, endowed with great energy, greatly blessed, possessed of the strength of Brahma, intelligent, of great wisdom and virtuous soul. Having allies and counselors united with men ready for battle, and having brothers and a father-in-law who are all heroes and mighty chariot-warriors, this tiger among men, the son of Pandu, is also endowed with patience, able to hold to his own counsel, compassionate, modest, possessed of faculties that cannot be led astray, possessed of great learning, with his soul under proper control, ever keeping his senses old and subdued; possessing thus every accomplishment, he is like a blazing fire.

This passage (5.53.6–10) develops the central theme of the Udyoga-parva: the effort toward peace unfolds against the backdrop of an already inevitable war. Key theme: the Pandavas. Dharma is revealed here through speech, the choice of embassy, fidelity to promises, and the responsibility kings bear for the consequences of their decisions.
