इति श्रीमहाभारते द्रोणपर्वणि जयद्रथवधपर्वणि ध्वजवर्णने पजञ्चाधिकशततमो<ध्याय:
iti śrīmahābhārate droṇaparvaṇi jayadrathavadhaparvaṇi dhvajavarṇane pañcādhikaśatatamo 'dhyāyaḥ
Kaya nga, sa Śrī Mahābhārata, sa loob ng Droṇa Parva—lalo na sa bahaging ukol sa pagpaslang kay Jayadratha—nagtatapos ang ika-isang daan at ika-limang kabanata, na nakatuon sa paglalarawan ng mga watawat. Ang pangwakas na kolopon na ito’y inilalagay ang salaysay bilang bahagi ng mas malawak na talaang moral at pangkasaysayan ng digmaan, at nagmamarka ng paglipat sa pag-unlad ng tungkulin, paninindigan, at mga bunga ng mga panatang pandigma.

Educational Q&A
As a colophon, the verse does not teach through direct instruction but through framing: it situates the events within an ethical epic record, reminding the reader that war narratives are preserved with attention to meaning, consequence, and the larger arc of dharma.
This is the chapter-ending marker stating that the one-hundred-and-fifth chapter—focused on describing battle banners—concludes within the Droṇa Parva, in the sub-section dealing with Jayadratha’s slaying.
