The greatly strong man who had hurled away the Madra king Shalya, he who had in anger frightened all men in the battle by the tree. He who had stood in perfect fearlessness, whose touch was death to all, that illustrious hero, was no other than Bhima, that grinder of hostile ranks.
यः शल्यं मद्रराजं वै प्रोक्षिप्यापातयद् बली। त्रासयामास संक्रुद्धो वृक्षेण पुरुषान् रणे॥ न चास्य सम्भ्रमः कश्चिदासीत् तत्र महात्मनः। स भीमो भीमसंस्पर्शः शत्रुसेनाङ्गपातनः॥
