Night Exhaustion and Brief Pause in Battle
Devanagari script
प्राप्प चेतश्न॒ बलवान् गदामस्मै ससर्ज ह | इस प्रकार शक्तिसे आहत होकर भीमसेन काँप उठे और मूर्च्छित हो गये। फिर सचेत होनेपर बलवान् भीमने उनपर गदाका प्रहार किया
Transliteration
sañjaya uvāca | prāpya cetanāṁ balavān gadām asmai sasarja ha |
Translation
Sañjaya said: Regaining consciousness, the mighty Bhīmasena hurled his mace at him. Though struck down by the force of the blow and momentarily shaken into a faint, Bhīma, once recovered, returned to the fight with renewed resolve—showing the relentless, duty-bound ferocity that governs warriors on the battlefield.
