Having taken up the bows, the arrows, the spiked maces and the swords, lances and the battle-axes and also the short clubs, the Vushandis, the Shakti-darts, the rapiers and the axes, as well as the iron maces, the spears, the white Kuntas, the short arrows and the hooks, the warriors most rapidly fell upon one another with the desire of killing them.
धनूर्षि बाणान् परिघानसिपट्टिशतोमरान्। मुसलानि भुशुण्डीश्च सशत्तवृष्टिपरश्वधान्॥ गदाः प्रासाञ्छितान् कुन्तान् भिन्दिपालान् महाङ्कुशान्। प्रगृह्य क्षिप्रमापेतुः परस्परजिघांसया॥
