Devanagari script
तथा ते राक्षसा: सर्वे भीमसेनमुपाद्रवन् । नानाप्रहरणा भीमास्त्वत्सुतानां जयैषिण:,आपके पुत्रोंकी विजय चाहनेवाले वे समस्त भयंकर राक्षस हाथोंमें नाना प्रकारके अस्त्र-शस्त्र लेकर भीमसेनपर टूट पड़े
Transliteration
tathā te rākṣasāḥ sarve bhīmasenam upādravan | nānā-praharaṇā bhīmās tvat-sutānāṁ jayaiṣiṇaḥ ||
Translation
Sanjaya said: Then all those fierce Rākṣasas, armed with many kinds of weapons, rushed upon Bhīmasena, driven by the desire to secure victory for your sons. The scene underscores how, in the frenzy of war, loyalty to one’s side can harden into ruthless aggression, turning strength and skill into instruments of partisan triumph rather than restraint.
