Bhagavad Gita · Chapter 1: Arjuna's Despair

Bhagavad Gita 1.4

अत्र शूरा महेष्वासा भीमार्जुनसमा युधि । युयुधानो विराटश्च द्रुपदश्च महारथः ॥

atra śūrā maheṣvāsā bhīmārjunasamā yudhi | yuyudhāno virāṭaśca drupadaśca mahārathaḥ ||

Here are heroes and great archers, equal in battle to Bhima and Arjuna: Yuyudhana, Virata, and Drupada the great chariot-warrior.

Modern context

Duryodhana begins by counting the strengths of the other side. An honest look at what you are up against is sensible; a list recited out of dread only feeds the dread.
