एतस्मिन्नेव काले तु पाण्डव: कृष्णसारथि: । आजगाम महाराज निष्नन् शत्रून् समनन््ततः,महाराज! इसी समय श्रीकृष्ण जिनके सारथि हैं, वे पाण्डुनन्दन अर्जुन सब ओरसे शत्रुओंका संहार करते हुए वहाँ आ पहुँचे, जहाँ वे दोनों पुरुषसिंह महाबली पिता-पुत्र भीमसेन और घटोत्कच भगदत्तके साथ युद्ध कर रहे थे
etasminn eva kāle tu pāṇḍavaḥ kṛṣṇa-sārathiḥ | ājagāma mahārāja niṣṇan śatrūn samantataḥ ||
三阇耶说道：“正当此时，陛下，那位以奎师那为御者的般度族勇士阿周那来到此处，四面斩落敌军，直抵两位如狮般雄健的父子英雄——毗摩塞那与伽陀迦遮——与普罗迦焦提沙之王婆伽达多交战之地。”
