nāsajjanta tanutreṣu bhīṣma-cāpa-cyutāḥ śarāḥ | hatavīrān rathāt rājan saṃyuktān javanair hayaiḥ ||
Translation
Dijo Sañjaya: Oh rey, las flechas soltadas del arco de Bhīṣma no se quedaban clavadas en las armaduras de los guerreros; por el contrario, golpeaban con tal fuerza que, una vez muertos los campeones, derribaban los carros, arrastrados con presteza por caballos veloces. La escena subraya el ímpetu sombrío de la batalla, donde el valor y el destino se confabulan para despojar de seguridad incluso a los mejor protegidos.
