त॑ तु तेनाभ्युपायेन गमयित्वा यमक्षयम्‌,रथेन शिबिरं प्रायाज्जिघांसुर्द्धिषतो बली | राजन! इस उपायसे धृष्टद्युम्मको यमलोक भेजकर तेजस्वी अश्वत्थामा उसके खेमेसे बाहर निकला और सुन्दर दिखायी देनेवाले अपने रथके पास आकर उसपर सवार हो गया। इसके बाद वह बलवान वीर अन्य शत्रुओंको मार डालनेकी इच्छा रखकर अपनी गर्जनासे सम्पूर्ण दिशाओंको प्रतिध्वनित करता हुआ रथके द्वारा प्रत्येक शिविरपर आक्रमण करने लगा

taṁ tu tenābhyupāyena gamayitvā yamakṣayam, rathena śibiraṁ prāyāj jighāṁsur dhṛṣato balī |

Sañjaya said: By that stratagem he dispatched Dhṛṣṭadyumna to Yama’s imperishable realm. Then the mighty Aśvatthāmā, intent on slaying his foes, drove by chariot toward the camp. Mounting his splendid car, he roared so that the quarters echoed, and began to assail each encampment in turn.
