Joyfully the latter said:-'All the Panchalas, as also all the sons of Draupadi, have been killed. All the Somakas and that remnant of the Matsyas, have been killed by me.
ततो जनक्षयं कृत्वा पाण्डवानां महात्ययम्॥ दिष्ट्या दिष्ट्यैव चान्योन्यं समेत्योचुर्महारथाः। पर्यष्वजत् ततो द्रौणिस्ताभ्यां सम्प्रतिनन्दितः॥ इदं हर्षात् तु सुमहदाददे वाक्यमुत्तमम्। पञ्चाला निहताः सर्वे द्रौपदेयाश्च सर्वशः॥ सोमका मत्स्यशेषाश्च सर्वे विनिहता मया।
