Kaurava–Pāṇḍava Readiness
रथस्थान् पुरुषव्याप्रान् पाण्डवानू प्रेक्ष्य पार्थिवा: । धृष्टद्युम्नादय: सर्वे पुनर्जहषिरे तदा,पुरुषसिंह पाण्डवोंको पुनः रथपर बैठे देख धृष्टद्युम्मन आदि राजा बड़े प्रसन्न हुए
rathasthān puruṣavyāprān pāṇḍavānū prekṣya pārthivāḥ | dhṛṣṭadyumnādayaḥ sarve punar jahaṣire tadā ||
قال سنجيا: ولما رأى الملوكُ الباندافا—أولئك الرجال كالأُسود—قد عادوا فجلسوا على مركباتهم مستعدين للفعل، ابتهج الجميع، بدءًا بدِهريشتاديومنَ. وكانت تلك اللحظة علامةً على تجدّد الشجاعة والعزم في جانب الدارما، إذ عاد المحاربون إلى الواجب المرسوم لهم في ساحة القتال.
