Chapter 89: Bhīma dispatched to protect Ghaṭotkaca amid escalating engagements
तथैव सात्यकी राजन धृष्टय्रुम्नश्न पार्षत: । परिवार्य रणे योधान् ययतु: शिबिरं प्रति,राजन! इसी प्रकार सात्यकि और ट्रुपदकुमार धृष्टद्युम्न भी युद्धमें अपने योद्धाओंको घेरकर शिविरकी ओर प्रस्थित हुए
tathaiva sātyakī rājan dhṛṣṭadyumnaś ca pārṣataḥ | parivārya raṇe yodhān yayatuḥ śibiraṁ prati ||
Sañjaya thưa: “Cũng như thế, tâu Đại vương, Sātyaki và Dhṛṣṭadyumna, con của Pārṣata (Drupada), sau khi vây quanh các chiến sĩ của mình giữa chiến trường, liền lên đường về doanh trại.”
