Just as fire helped forwarded by the wind, burns down a forest abounding in trees, creepers, brush-woods, dry fuels and grass, so, that fire viz., the enraged Dhananjaya, the son of Pandu, having arrows for his flames and helped forward by the Krishna-wind, consumed the forest constituted by your troops.
भूरिदुमलतागुल्मं शुष्केन्धनतृणोलपम्॥ निर्दहेदनलोऽरण्यं यथा वायुसमीरितः। सेनारण्यं तव तथा कृष्णानिलसमीरितः॥ शरार्चिरदहत् क्रुद्धः पाण्डवाग्निर्धनंजयः।
