Drupada talks to Yudhistira

In the camp, Yudhistira said to Krishna - Bhishma is making a massacre of our soldiers.
Hearing this Drupada said - You are forgetting the past. When you were in Varnavrata in the house of Lac, you had been visited by a hunter woman and her five sons. Her husband had tried to kill a pregnant deer, but the deer had called out to Krishna for help, and the hunter had perished. Not knowing where to go, his wife and five sons had come to your house. When the house was set on fire by you, the hunter woman and her sons died. When you had escaped, Bhima had realized he had left his mace behind. He came to collect it and the flames of fire tried to make a meal of Bhima. Bhima had said he would give 100 princes as sacrifice and the fire had left Bhima. Krishna had taken the heat of the fire on him so that you could be saved. When Rukmini asked Krishna, the cause of the burn, Krishna had said this was for the welfare of mankind.
With Krishna with you, you cannot loose this battle.
