and 131. There is the description of a picture
depicting the denuding of Draupadi at the time of the
gambling episode. The description does not mention
the miracle by which K峁涐梗峁嘺 himself supplies Draupadi
with the garments as each one is taken off. Omission of
this detail has led Dr. Winternitz to assume that "this
miracle of garments is a very late interpolation". The
conclusion seems unwarranted as the omission may be
deliberate, since its mention would have
Duryodhana enjoy the sight of his own shame; further,
as observed by Dr. Keith, this omission may be due "to
the difficulty of exhibiting this by the painter's art"."
The embassy (of K峁涐梗峁嘺) has been dramatized to glorify
K峁涐梗峁嘺 and proclaim his identity with Vasudeva, N膩r膩ya峁嘺
and Vis峁噓. The scene about the various divine weapons
appearing in human form is a speciality of Bh膩sa.

The Dutaghatotkaca depicts Ghatotkaca as an
envoy to the Kauravas and predicts their punishment at
the hands of Arjuna. Ghatotkaca delivers the message
of Krsna to Dh峁泃ar膩峁ａ弓ra. As no such incident appears
in the Mbh, of Ghatotkaca going as the envoy either
after the death of Abhimanyu (as told in the drama) or
at any other time, the plot seems to have been the poet's
invention, the epic having supplied him with the characters
only.
The Karnabh膩ra follows the epic in the main.
Kar峁嘺 details the story of his obtaining the astras from
Para艣ur膩ma, which occurs in the Kar峁嘺parva, Adhy膩ya
42, and Santiparva, Ahdy膩yas 2-3. The main incident of
Karna giving away his armour to Indra in disguise is
found in the Mbh, Vanaparva, Adhy膩ya 310, and
Santiparva, Adhy膩ya 5. Bh膩sa has transposed the
incident occurring in the forest to the battlefield, has
changed the characters of Karna and Salya making them
more noble and saintly than in the epic, and introduced
minor changes.
The Urubhanga has for its basis the Salyaparva,
Adhy膩yas 56-58, with slight changes, describing the fight
of Duryodhana and Bhima. In the play, 艢r墨k峁涐梗峁嘺
throws a suggestion to Bhima by patting his thigh to
