shaly dvara karn ka upahas

karn svabhav se danbhi tha. vah jab bhi atmaprashansa karata, shaly usaka parihas karane lagata tatha paandavoan ki prashansa kar use hatotsahit karata rahata. shaly ne ek katha bhi sunayi ki- "ek bar vaishy parivar ki joothan par palane vala ek garvila kaua rajahansoan ko apane sammukh kuchh samajhata hi nahian tha. ek bar ek hans se usane u dane ki ho d lagayi aur bola ki vah sau prakar se u dana janata hai. ho d mean lanbi u dan lete hue vah thak kar mahasagar mean gir gaya. rajahans ne pranoan ki bhikh maangate hue kaue ko sagar se bahar nikal apani pith par ladakar usake desh tak pahuancha diya." shaly bola- "isi prakar karn, tum bhi kauravoan ki bhikh par palakar ghanmadi hote ja rahe ho." karn bahut rusht hua, par yuddh poorvavat chalata raha.
