तद् युद्धमभवत् तीव्र तुमुलं लोमहर्षणम् । कुरूणां पाण्डवानां च व्यूहस्य पुरतो5द्भधुतम्,व्यूहके द्वारपर होनेवाला कौरवों तथा पाण्डवोंका वह अद्भुत युद्ध अत्यन्त तीव्र एवं भयंकर था। उसे देखकर लोगोंके रोंगटे खड़े हो जाते थे
tad yuddham abhavat tīvraṃ tumulaṃ lomaharṣaṇam | kurūṇāṃ pāṇḍavānāṃ ca vyūhasya purato 'dbhūtam ||
ବ୍ୟୂହର ଦ୍ୱାର ସମ୍ମୁଖରେ କୁରୁ ଓ ପାଣ୍ଡବମାନଙ୍କ ମଧ୍ୟରେ ହୋଇଥିବା ସେଇ ଯୁଦ୍ଧ ଅତ୍ୟନ୍ତ ତୀବ୍ର, ତୁମୁଳ ଓ ଲୋମହର୍ଷକ—ଅଦ୍ଭୁତ ଥିଲା। ତାହା ଦେଖିଲେ ଦର୍ଶକମାନଙ୍କର ରୋମାଞ୍ଚ ହେଉଥିଲା।
