Translation
Sañjaya said: “They seized me alive—taking me as a living captive—when I had fainted and fallen upon the earth. For a while a dreadful and fierce battle raged there; the mighty-armed Sātyaki destroyed all my implements of war, and when I collapsed senseless to the ground, he captured me without killing me.”
