इस प्रकार श्रीमह्याभारत शल्यपर्वमें संकुलयुद्धविषयक उन्नीसवाँ अध्याय पूरा हुआ
pāñjālarājasya sutaṃ ca dṛṣṭvā tadārditaṃ nāgavareṇa tena | tam abhyadhāvat sahasā javena bhīmaḥ śikhaṇḍī ca śaineyaś ca ||
Sinabi ni Sañjaya: Nang makita nilang ang anak ng hari ng Pāñcāla ay mabigat na sinasalakay ng pinakadakilang elepante, sina Bhīma, Śikhaṇḍī, at Śaineya (Sātyaki) ay agad na sumugod patungo sa kanya nang buong bilis—uudyok ng tungkulin ng mandirigma na ipagtanggol ang kakampi sa gitna ng kaguluhan ng labanan.

Educational Q&A
In the midst of chaotic warfare, kṣatriya-dharma emphasizes swift protection of comrades and allies; valor is shown not only in attacking but also in rescuing those endangered.
Dhṛṣṭadyumna, the Pāñcāla prince, is being badly pressed by a powerful elephant; seeing this, Bhīma, Śikhaṇḍī, and Sātyaki immediately rush toward him to intervene.
