उभौ कलिड्गवृषकौ भ्रातरौ युद्धदुर्मदौ । कृत्वा चासुकरं कर्म गतौ वैवस्वतक्षयम्
ubhau kaliṅgavṛṣakau bhrātarau yuddha-durmadau | kṛtvā cāsukaraṃ karma gatau vaivasvata-kṣayam ||
সঞ্জয়ে ক’লে—কলিঙ্গ আৰু বৃষক—এই দুয়ো ভ্ৰাতা, যুদ্ধোন্মাদত উদ্ধত—দুষ্কৰ কৰ্ম কৰি—বৈবস্বত (যম)-ৰ ধামলৈ গ’ল।

Sañjaya reports that the two brothers, Kaliṅga and Vṛṣaka, carried out a difficult feat in the fighting and were then slain—described poetically as departing to Yama’s abode.
