Daśame’hani Bhīṣma-yuddham — Śikhaṇḍī-rakṣaṇa, Arjuna-prabhāva, Duryodhana-āśraya-vākyam
अर्जुनस्तु रणे नादं विनद्य रथिनां वर: । त्रिगर्तराजं समरे सपुत्रं विव्यथे शरै:,तब रथियोंमें श्रेष्ठ अर्जुनने सिंहनाद करके समरांगणमें पुत्रसहित त्रिगर्तराज सुशर्माको अपने बाणोंसे घायल कर दिया
arjunastu raṇe nādaṃ vinadya rathināṃ varaḥ | trigartarājaṃ samare saputraṃ vivyathe śaraiḥ ||
Wika ni Sanjaya: Pagkaraan, si Arjuna—pinakamagaling sa mga mandirigmang nakasakay sa karwahe—ay umalingawngaw ang sigaw-digma sa gitna ng sagupaan; at sa engkuwentrong iyon, sa pamamagitan ng ulang-palaso, kanyang tinuhog at sinugatan ang hari ng Trigarta na si Susharman kasama ang mga anak nito—ipinamalas ang kanyang giting at pinigil ang marahas nilang pagsulong.
