तस्य तेनावकीर्णस्य शरजालेन सर्वतः । मोहात्‌ पपात गाण्डीवमावापश्न करादपि,उस बाणसमूहके द्वारा सब ओरसे आच्छादित हुए अर्जुनपर मोह छा गया। उस समय उनके हाथसे गाण्डीव धनुष और दस्ताने गिर पड़े

Translation

Вайшампаяна сказал: Когда Арджуна со всех сторон был полностью накрыт той сетью стрел, его одолело помрачение. В тот миг даже лук Гандиву — и защитная перчатка — выскользнули из его руки и упали.
