Droṇa’s Fall: Dhṛtarāṣṭra’s Inquiry

लोहिताक्ष॑ महाबाहुं बृहन्तं तमरट्टजा: । महासत्त्वा महाकाया: सौवर्णस्यन्दने स्थितम्‌,जो एकत्र हुए सम्पूर्ण भरतवंशियोंके मतोंका परित्याग करके अपने सम्पूर्ण मनोरथोंको छोड़कर केवल भक्तिभावसे युधिष्ठिरके पक्षमें चले गये, उन लाल नेत्र और विशाल भुजावाले राजा बृहन्तको, जो सुवर्णमय रथपर बैठे हुए थे, अरट्टदेशके महापराक्रमी, विशालकाय और सुनहरे रंगवाले घोड़े रणभूमिमें ले गये

sañjaya uvāca | lohitākṣaṃ mahābāhuṃ bṛhantaṃ tam araṭṭajāḥ | mahāsattvā mahākāyāḥ sauvarṇasyandane sthitam ||

Sanjaya said: The men of the Aratta country—mighty in prowess, great in spirit, and huge of frame—bore along King Bṛhanta, red-eyed and broad-armed, as he stood upon a golden chariot. Having set aside the divided counsels of the Bharata clans and relinquished their private aims, they moved with single-minded devotion to the side of Yudhiṣṭhira, carrying their chosen leader into the press of battle.
