Droṇasya raudra-prayogaḥ

Droṇa’s intensified assault and the Pāṇḍava response

Devanagari script

ते कम्प्यमाना द्रोणेन बाणै: पाण्डवसृञ्जया:

Transliteration

te kampyamānā droṇena bāṇaiḥ pāṇḍavasṛñjayāḥ

Translation

サञ्जयは語った。――ドローナの矢に揺さぶられ、震えさせられて、パーンダヴァとスリンジャヤの軍は戦場で激しく圧迫された。これは、戦の力が決意を呑み込むとき、ただ一人の武の達人が、正しき同盟すら動揺させ得ることを示す光景である。
