स त्वम् आतिष्ठ यानाय यत्र यातो धनंजयः ॥
ममापि रक्षणं भीमः करिष्यति महाबलः ॥
पार्षतश् च ससोदर्यः पार्थिवाश् च महाबलाः ॥
द्रौपदेयाश् च मां तात रक्षिष्यन्ति न संशयः ॥
केकया भ्रातरः पञ्च राक्षसश् च घटोत्कचः ॥
विराटो द्रुपदश् चैव शिखण्डी च महारथः ॥
धृष्टकेतुश् च बलवान् कुन्तिभोजश् च मारिष ॥
नकुलः सहदेवश् च पाञ्चालाः सृञ्जयास् तथा ॥
एते समाहितास् तात रक्षिष्यन्ति न संशयः ॥
