Translation
Sañjaya berkata: “Wahai yang mulia, melihat para pahlawan itu dibunuh oleh putera Sūta, segala makhluk dilanda ngeri—bahkan yang dari alam binatang dan burung. Keganasan di medan perang menjadi begitu dahsyat sehingga ketakutan melimpah melampaui para petempur, menggoncang seluruh dunia yang bernyawa.”
