Bhagadatta’s Advance, the Saṃśaptaka Challenge, and Arjuna’s Counterstrike (द्रोणपर्व, अध्याय २६)
तमार्जुनि्द्धादिशभिरयुयुत्सुर्दशभि: शरै: | त्रिभिस्त्रिभिद्रौपदेया धृष्टकेतुश्च विव्यधु:,अर्जुनकुमार अभिमन्युने बारह, युयुत्सुने दस और द्रौपदीके पुत्रों तथा धृष्टकेतुने तीन- तीन बाणोंसे भगदत्तके उस हाथीको घायल कर दिया
tam ārjunir ddhādibhir ayuyutsur daśabhiḥ śaraiḥ | tribhis tribhir draupadeyā dhṛṣṭaketuś ca vivyadhuḥ ||
Sañjaya said: Abhimanyu, the son of Arjuna, struck that elephant (of Bhagadatta) with twelve arrows; Yuyutsu pierced it with ten; and the sons of Draupadī together with Dhṛṣṭaketu wounded it with three arrows each. Thus, in the press of battle, the Pāṇḍava warriors sought to check the enemy’s formidable mount through coordinated, measured force rather than reckless assault.
