द्रौणिप्रतिज्ञा–नारायणास्त्रवर्णनम्
Drauṇi’s Vow and the Description of the Nārāyaṇāstra
यज्ञसेनस्तु समरे कर्णपुत्रं महारथम् । षष्ट्या शराणां विव्याध बाह्दवोरुगसि चानघ,निष्पाप नरेश! समरांगणमें राजा यज्ञसेन (द्रुपद)-ने महारथी कर्णपुत्र वृषसेनकी छाती और भुजाओंमें साठ बाण मारे
sañjaya uvāca | yajñasenas tu samare karṇaputraṁ mahāratham | ṣaṣṭyā śarāṇāṁ vivyādha bāhvor urasi cānagha niṣpāpa nareśa |
サञ्जयは言った。戦のただ中で、王ヤジュニャセーナ(ドルパダ)は、カルナの子にして大車戦士なるヴリシャセーナの両腕と胸を、六十の矢で射貫いた。罪なき王よ、かくして戦いはいよいよ激しさを増した。
संजय उवाच
The verse highlights the kṣatriya ethos of steadfastness and skill in battle: warriors meet opponents directly and decisively, and the narrator’s respectful address to the king frames the violence within the epic’s moral world of duty-bound conflict rather than personal cruelty.
Sañjaya reports to Dhṛtarāṣṭra that Drupada (Yajñasena) engages Karṇa’s son Vṛṣasena and wounds him with sixty arrows, striking his arms and chest during the ongoing fighting in the Droṇa Parva.
