विविंशतिं भीमसेनो विंशत्या निशितै: शरै: । विद्ध्वा नाकम्पयद् वीरस्तदद्भुतमिवाभवत्,वीर भीमसेन बीस तीखे बाणोंद्वारा विविंशतिको घायल करके भी उन्हें विचलित न कर सके। यह एक अद्भुत-सी बात हुई
Transliteration
viviṁśatiṁ bhīmaseno viṁśatyā niśitaiḥ śaraiḥ | viddhvā nākampayad vīras tad adbhutam ivābhavat ||
Translation
Sañjaya said: Bhīmasena, striking Viviṁśati with twenty razor-sharp arrows, still could not make that warrior waver. It seemed almost wondrous—showing how, in the fury of battle, sheer force may fail before an opponent’s steadfastness and martial resolve.
