サンジャヤは言った。「かくして『聖マハーバーラタ』ドローナ・パルヴァのうち、ガトートカチャ討伐章に属し、夜戦の折にアシュヴァッターマンの武威を描く第百六十章は終わる。」章末の結語（コロフォン）はこの叙述単位の閉幕を告げ、夜の暴虐とアシュヴァッターマンの戦の気迫を、大戦のより大きな倫理的悲劇の中の一つの独立した挿話として枠づける。

Educational Q&A
As a colophon, the verse does not teach through direct instruction; it frames the episode ethically by isolating a night-battle segment centered on Aśvatthāman’s prowess within the broader war narrative, implicitly reminding the reader that heroic energy in war is being cataloged as part of a larger, morally fraught conflict.
The narrator (Sanjaya) signals the end of Adhyaya 160 in the Droṇa Parva, specifying that this chapter belongs to the Ghaṭotkaca-slaying section and concerns the night-battle and Aśvatthāman’s feats; it is an editorial/narrative closure marker rather than a plot event.
