In that awful and fierce battle from which few escaped alive, the earth became deluged with blood and the dust that had then arisen disappeared inconsequence of the showers of blood and the gale that blew over the field of battle; so great was the shower of blood that car wheel sank in the mire caused thereby up to their naves.
रणे महति दुष्पारे वर्तमाने सुदारुणे॥ शोणितस्य प्रसेकेन शीघ्रत्वादनिलस्य च। अशाम्यत् तद् रजो भौममसृक्सिक्ते धरातले॥ आनाभि निरमज्जश्च रथवक्त्राणि शोणिते।
