Translation

Sañjaya berkata: “Wahai Raja, demikianlah demi Bhīṣma terjadilah peperangan besar yang ngeri dan menakutkan antara Droṇācārya dan Dhṛṣṭadyumna. Kemudian Arjuna, setelah mendekat rapat, menekan hebat dengan anak panah yang tajam dan mara ke hadapan dalam kesiapsiagaan penuh—bagaikan gajah mabuk mengamuk merempuh rimba.”
