The son of Arjuna, O Bharata covered with a shower of arrows. Then Durjaya and Vikarna pierced the nephew of Krishna with five shafts made entirely of iron. But the nephew of Krishna moved not in the least and remained firm like the immovable Meru. In that conflict, O sire Dushasana fought with the five Kaikeya brothers; O mighty monarch, the battle that raged between them was indeed very wonderful. The sons of Draupadi excited with rage, in that battle, checked Duryodhana.
आर्जुनिः शरजालेन च्छादयामास भारत॥ चित्रसेनो विकर्णश्च कार्ष्णि पञ्चभिरायसैः। विव्याध तेन चाकम्पत् कार्णिमरुरिव स्थितः॥ दुःशासनस्तु समरे केकयान् पञ्च मारिष। योधयामास राजेन्द्र तदद्भुतमिवाभवत्॥ द्रौपदेया रणे क्रुद्धा दुर्योधनमवारयन्।
