Shloka 573
अलक्ष्यमाणानि दिवि शरजालानि चापतन् । उस समय माया तथा शीघ्रकारिताके द्वारा वह कर्णको लड़ा रहा था। आकाशसे कर्णपर अलक्षित बाणसमूहोंकी वर्षा हो रही थी

সঞ্জয়ে ক’লে—আকাশত অদৃশ্য শৰজাল নামি আহিছিল। মায়া আৰু তীব্ৰ গতি-কৌশলে সি কৰ্ণক যুঁজত চেপি ধৰিছিল; ওপৰৰ পৰা কৰ্ণৰ ওপৰত অদেখা শৰসমূহৰ বৰষুণ পৰি আছিল।
