The Vāsavī Spear’s Use, Post-Ghaṭotkaca Grief, and Vyāsa’s Counsel
ततो राजन्नभूद् घोर: संग्रामो लोमहर्षण: । बीभस्सुर्दक्षिणं पार्श्वमुत्तरं च वृकोदर:
tato rājann abhūd ghoraḥ saṅgrāmo lomaharṣaṇaḥ | bībhassur dakṣiṇaṃ pārśvam uttaraṃ ca vṛkodaraḥ ||
ثم، أيها الملك، اندلعت معركةٌ مروّعة تُقشَعِرّ لها الأبدان. فتولّى بيبهاتسو الميمنة، وتولّى فِرْكودَرَةُ الجناحَ الشمالي.
सयजय उवाच
