Then they (the above warriors) continued to shower (their weapons) upon those elephants and having been excited by the sound of bowstrings and palms, as well as by the beatings (caused by the heroes), began to dance the dance worthy of the heroic warriors. Afterwards Nakula, Shahadeva, the sons of Draupadi, the Provadrakas, Satyaki, Shikhandin and the most powerful Chekitana, these heroes drenched (these elephants) from all sides (with their weapons); even as the clouds drench the mountains with the torrents of water.
तान् नागानभिवर्षन्तो ज्यातन्त्रीतलनादितैः। वीरनृत्यं प्रनृत्यन्तः शूरतालप्रचोदितैः। नकुलः सहदेवश्च द्रौपदेयाः प्रभद्रकाः॥ सात्यकिश्च शिखण्डी च चेकितानश्च वीर्यवान्। समन्तात् सिषिचुर्वीरा मेघास्तोयैरिवाचलान्॥
