भीमसेन–कर्णयुद्धवर्णनम्
Description of the Bhīmasena–Karṇa Engagement
पुनर्द्रर्णि च सप्तत्या शराणां सो5भ्यताडयत् । तत्पश्चात् कृपाचार्यको पचीस, जयद्रथको सौ तथा अभश्वत्थामाको पुनः उन्होंने सत्तर बाण मारे
punar droṇiṃ ca saptatyā śarāṇāṃ so 'bhyatāḍayat | tatpaścāt kṛpācāryaṃ pañcaviṃśatyā jayadrathaṃ ca ṣaṣṭyā tathā aśvatthāmānam punaḥ ||
Sañjaya said: Again he struck Droṇa’s son with seventy arrows. Thereafter he assailed Kṛpa, the preceptor, with twenty-five; Jayadratha with sixty; and once more he attacked Aśvatthāmā. The narration underscores the relentless, escalating rhythm of battle—where prowess is measured in restraint and precision as much as in force, even while the ethical weight of violence continues to accumulate on all sides.
