द्रोण–धृष्टद्युम्नयुद्धवर्णनम्
Drona–Dhrishtadyumna Battle Description
निजघ्ने दशसाहस्रान् राम: परशुना तदा । न ह्मृष्यत ता वाचो यास्तैर्भूशमुदीरिता:
nijaghne daśasāhasrān rāmaḥ paraśunā tadā | na hṛṣyata tā vāco yās tair bhūśam udīritāḥ ||
Nārada said: Then Rāma (Paraśurāma) struck down ten thousand men with his axe. Yet he did not exult in the loud cries that were raised by them—showing a grim, duty-driven ferocity rather than delight in slaughter.
