Droṇa and Arjuna Engage; Trigarta Containment; Bhīma Breaks the Elephant Corps
तामापतन्तीं सम्प्रेक्ष्य वियत्स्थामशनीमिव । उत्पत्य राक्षसस्तूर्ण जग्राह च ननाद च
tām āpatantīṃ samprekṣya viyat-sthām aśanīm iva | utpatya rākṣasas tūrṇaṃ jagrāha ca nanāda ca ||
三阇耶说:见那强大的飞矛自空中坠下,光耀如霹雳,罗刹伽托特迦刹那跃起,将其一把夺住,并如狮子般长吼。
संजय उवाच
