ततः स पार्षत: क्रूरो व्यूहं चक्रे सुदारुणम् । शृज्भाटकं महाराज परव्यूहविनाशनम्,महाराज! तदनन्तर क्रूर स्वभाववाले धृष्टद्युम्नने अत्यन्त दारुण शृंगाटक (सिंघाड़े)-के आकारवाला व्यूह बनाया, जो शत्रुके व्यूहका विनाश करनेवाला था
tataḥ sa pārṣataḥ krūro vyūhaṃ cakre sudāruṇam | śṛṅgāṭakaṃ mahārāja paravyūha-vināśanam ||
