Chapter 12: Arjuna’s suppression of the Saṃśaptakas and duel with Aśvatthāmā
Drauṇi
तेषां रथाश्वनागाश्च प्रवराश्नोग्रपत्तय: । नानावाद्यधरै्हष्टा नृत्यन्ति च हसन्ति च,ततः क्रुद्धो महाराज सात्वतो युद्धदुर्मदः । धनुरन्यत् समादाय सज्यं कृत्वा च संयुगे
teṣāṁ rathāśvanāgāś ca pravarāś cogrāpattayaḥ | nānāvādyadharair hṛṣṭā nṛtyanti ca hasanti ca, tataḥ kruddho mahārāja sātvatō yuddhadurmadaḥ | dhanur anyat samādāya sajyaṁ kṛtvā ca saṁyuge
Sañjaya said: Among them were excellent chariots, horses, and elephants, along with foremost and fierce warriors. Delighted, and accompanied by men bearing many kinds of musical instruments, they danced and laughed. Then the mighty king of the Sātvatas, intoxicated with the fury of battle, became enraged; taking up another bow, he strung it and made ready in the thick of the fight.
