eṣa gacchati kaunteya turagaś caiva dīptimān yam anveti mahābāhuḥ saṃspṛśan dhanur uttamam
Translation
Disse Vaiśampāyana: “Lá vai Arjuna, filho de Kuntī; e lá vai o radiante cavalo do sacrifício. Seguindo-o vem Arjuna, de braços poderosos, mantendo a mão sobre o seu excelente arco.” Assim falava o povo, assinalando tanto a visibilidade pública do rito quanto a vigilante guarda de Arjuna a serviço do dharma de Yudhiṣṭhira.
