Divesting perforce the enemy of his splendour by the twang of the Gandiva bow and the striking of palms and destroying the Kurus with arrows the ape-bannered Arjuna and Garuda-bannered Krishna, gifted with measureless prowess, those two best of men joyfully took up, with their hands, their snow white conchs sending forth loud peals, adorned with gold and blew them simultaneously striking terror unto the hearts of their enemies.
ततो धनुातलबाणनिःस्वनैः प्रसह्य कृत्वा च रिपून हतप्रभान्। संछादयित्वा तु कुरूशरोत्तमैः कपिध्वजः पक्षिवरध्वजश्च॥ हृष्टौ ततस्तावमितप्रभावी मनांस्यरीणामवदारयन्तौ। सुवर्णजालावततौ महास्वनौ हिमावदातौ परिगृह्य पाणिभिः। चुचुम्बतुः शङ्खवरौ नृणां वरौ वराननाभ्यां युगपच दध्मतुः॥
