Many Kiratas also, O king, and Yavanas, all excellent bowmen, and various tribes of Mlechchas too, who had been discomfited before (by the Pandavas on the field of Kurukshetra), and many Aryan kings, possessed of soldiers and animals gifted with great alacrity, and all irresistible if fight, met the son of Pandu in battle.
किराता यवना राजन् बहवोऽसिधनुर्धराः। म्लेच्छाश्चान्ये बहुविधाः पूर्वं ये निकृता रणे॥ आर्याश्च पृथिवीपालाः प्रहृष्टनरवाहनाः। समीयुः पाण्डुपुत्रेण बहवो युद्धदुर्मदाः॥
