PDE Maharabharata by Arnold, Besant, Devee, Dutt, Ganguli, Kincaid, Macfie, Mackenzie, Nivedita, Seeger, and Tagore
Vidura saved the Pandava's and their mother by an underground passage to the woods, so they wouldn't be hurt by the fire, but many believed they died in the fire. Duryodhana and Dhritarashtra rejoiced when they heard they Kunti and her sons died. While Bhima was taking care of his family in the forest, a rakshasa named Hidimba wanted to eat them and sent his sister to bring them. Instead, the rakshasa woman falls in love with Bhima and warns him about her brother. Bhima kills Hidimba and he marries the rakshasa woman. Bhima and Hidimbi had a son Ghatotokacha, she eventually left the Pandavas with her son. Bhima returns to his family in Ekachakra where he defeats Baka, a monster that was conquering the town. Draupadi and Dhrishtadyumna are born supernaturally with the purpose to defeat Drona and the Kauravas. The Pandavas went toward Panchala disguised as brahmin and hoped to win Draupadi's heart. Karna almost won Draupadi, but doesn't because Draupadi doesn't want him. Arjuna wins the contest and takes Draupadi as his bride, who Drupada wanted to win. Draupadi becomes the wife of all five Pandava brothers. Draupadi is the reincarnation of Nalayani, who is punished with five husbands in her next life time for asking Shankara for husband five times. Yudhishthira becomes king and the Pandava princes built Indraprastha. After breaking a rule, Arjuna is sent into exile for 12 years. While in exile, he meets Ulupi and they have a child named Iravat. While bathing in the river, Arjuna is bitten by an alligator. Thankfully Ulupi gave him the power to be invisible in water and to never be conquered by a water creature. The alligator turned into a nymph and told Arjuna all the alligators were cursed nymphs, so Arjuna helped the other water nymphs break their curse. Arjuna traveled to Manipur and fell in love with Chitra and they had a son. Arjuna arrives in Krishna's city, where he is advised to abduct his sister, Subhadra. He takes Subhadra as his wife and returns to Indraprastha. Draupadi and Subhadra get along, and Draupadi has five sons to her husbands and Subhadra has a son named Abhimanyu with Arjuna. Maya build a palace for the Pandavas because he was so thankful for Arjuna and Krishna, which makes Duryodhana even more jealous. Yudhishthira wants to perfrom a Rajasuya sacrifice that requires him to overcome Jarasandha. Jarasandha is killed by Bhima and Krishna killed Sishupala. Duryodhana wins Draupadi in a gambling match with Yudhishthira. Draupadi is upset at being won by Duryodhana. Bhima is infuriated and vows to kill Duryodhana and Duhshasana. Draupadi asks for her husbands to be set free from slavery and Draupadi and the Pandavas return to Indrapastha. After a second match, Draupadi and the Pandavas are all sent into exile. Draupadi vows to that Bhima will kill Duhshasana.
