Transliteration
pratiṣṭhā supratiṣṭhā ca rocamānā surocanā | naukarṇī mukhakarṇī ca viśirā manthinī tathā
Translation
Vaiśampāyana dijo: «(Había mujeres llamadas) Pratiṣṭhā y Supratiṣṭhā; Rocamānā y Surocanā; Naukarṇī y Mukhakarṇī; y asimismo Viśirā y Manthinī.» En medio del relato bélico, el texto se detiene para consignar estos nombres, preservando memoria y linaje: un gesto ético de reconocer a las personas, en vez de reducir los hechos a mera violencia.
