भीमबाद्न्तरे सक्तो विस्फुरत्यनिशं बली । भीमसेनकी भुजाओंमें फँसे हुए बलवान् सात्यकि धृष्टद्युम्नकी बातें सुनकर फुफकारते हुए सर्पके समान लंबी साँस खींचते हुए निरन्तर छूटनेकी चेष्टा कर रहे थे
bhīmabādhāntare sakto visphuraty aniśaṃ balī | bhīmasenakī bhujāsu phaṃsaḥ balavān sātyakiḥ dhṛṣṭadyumnasya vākyaṃ śrutvā bhujaṅga iva dīrgha-niḥśvāsaṃ muñcan nityam eva mokṣāya ceṣṭate sma |
サンジャヤは言った。「ビーマセーナの両腕の圧し潰すような抱擁に固く捉えられ、剛勇サーティヤキは休みなくもがき続けた。ドリシュタデュムナの言葉を聞くや、彼は蛇のごとく嘶き、長く重い息を引き絞り、絶え間なく脱け出そうと努めた——戦場のダルマの重圧のただ中で抑え込まれながらも、なお折れぬ武人の決意の姿であった。」
