महाभारतः mahābhārataḥ - book-1, chapter-185, verse-26

अप्राप्यरूपां हि नरेन्द्रकन्यामिमामहं ब्राह्मण साधु मन्ये ।
न तद्धनुर्मन्दबलेन शक्यं मौर्व्या समायोजयितुं तथा हि ।
न चाकृतास्त्रेण न हीनजेन लक्ष्यं तथा पातयितुं हि शक्यम् ॥२६॥

26. aprāpyarūpāṁ hi narendrakanyā;mimāmahaṁ brāhmaṇa sādhu manye ,

na cākṛtāstreṇa na hīnajena; lakṣyaṁ tathā pātayituṁ hi śakyam.

26. aprāpya rūpām hi narendra kanyām imām aham brāhmaṇa
sādhu manye na tat dhanuḥ manda balena śakyam
maurvyā samāyojayitum tathā hi na ca akṛta astreṇa
na hi hīnajena lakṣyam tathā pātayitum hi śakyam

26. O Brahmin, I truly consider this princess, whose beauty (rūpa) is difficult to attain, to be rightly won. For that bow cannot be strung with its bowstring by one of weak strength. Nor, indeed, can the target be struck in that manner by one unskilled in weaponry, nor by one of inferior birth.
