Translation

Sañjaya said: “O lord, when that young prince—the son of the king of Magadha—had been slain, the Magadhan warriors, roused on every side and straining with resolve, surged together to assail Yuyudhāna (Sātyaki). Thus grief and loyalty to their fallen royal heir turned at once into a collective, retaliatory onslaught amid the chaos of battle.”
