तदनन्तर वहाँ उसने कौरवोंके महान् संहारका वह सारा समाचार कहा और यह भी बताया कि शत्रु विजयी हो रहे हैं और महाराज धृतराष्ट्रके सभी पुत्र विपत्तिके समुद्रमें डूब रहे हैं
tadanantaraṁ tatra sa kauravāṇāṁ mahāsaṁhārasya tat sarvaṁ samācāraṁ jagāda; etad api nyavedayat—śatravaḥ vijayino bhavanti, mahārājasya dhṛtarāṣṭrasya sarve putrā vipatti-samudre nimajjanti.

Sañjaya continues his battlefield report to King Dhṛtarāṣṭra, conveying comprehensive news of the Kauravas’ heavy losses and stating that the opposing side is prevailing, while Dhṛtarāṣṭra’s sons are being overwhelmed by misfortune.
