मत्ता रुधिरगन्धेन बहवो<त्र विचेतस: । जघ्नु: परान् स्वकांश्वैव प्राप्तान् प्राप्ताननन्तरान्,वहाँ बहते हुए रक्तकी गन्धसे मतवाले हो बहुत-से सैनिक विवेकशक्ति खो बैठे थे और बारी-बारीसे अपने पास आये हुए शत्रुपक्षेके तथा अपने पक्षके सैनिकोंका भी वध कर डालते थे
Translation
ସେଠାରେ ବହୁଥିବା ରକ୍ତର ଗନ୍ଧରେ ମତ୍ତ ହୋଇ ଅନେକ ସେନା ବିବେକ ହରାଇଥିଲେ; ଯେ ଯେ ନିକଟକୁ ଆସୁଥିଲା—ଶତ୍ରୁପକ୍ଷର ହେଉ କି ସ୍ୱପକ୍ଷର—ସେମାନେ ପାଳେ ପାଳେ ତାକୁ ହତ୍ୟା କରୁଥିଲେ।
