O best of the Bharata race, as Indra shower down rain, so did the son of Jambhavati (Samba) showers down arrows in a continuous stream. O great king, the commander of (Shalva's) forces, Kshemavriddhi, bore that shower of arrows (and stood) as immovable as the Himalayas.
तस्य बाणमयं वर्ष जाम्बवत्याः सुतो महत्। मुमोच भरतश्रेष्ठ यथा वर्ष सहस्रदृक्॥ तद् बाणवर्षं तुमुलं विषेहे स चमूपतिः। क्षेमवृद्धिर्महाराज हिमवानिव निश्चलः॥
