मृगैश्न विविधाकारैर्हाहाभूतमचेतनम् । शिखरं तस्य शैलस्य मथितं दीनदर्शनम्
Translation
Bhishma sprach: Von Tieren mannigfacher Gestalt erhob sich das Wehgeschrei „Wehe! Wehe!“, das sich nach allen Seiten ausbreitete, als ob der reglose Gipfel des Berges selbst aufschrie. Von jener Glut versengt, erschien die Bergspitze in erbarmungswürdigem Anblick.
