And then, with great violence, struck Bhimasena with thirty shafts. That scorcher of foes, O sire, next struck off Sahadeva's standard with a flat-faced arrow and then pierced his charioteer with three others. He, O foremost of the Bharata race, almost in no time, deprived the (five) sons of Draupadi of their chariots and it seemed truly wonderful.
भीमसेनं ततः क्रुद्धोविव्याध त्रिंशता शरैः॥ सहदेवस्य भल्लेन ध्वज चिच्छेद मारिष। सारथिं च त्रिभिर्बाणैराजघान परंतपः॥ विरथान् द्रौपदेयांश्च चकार भरतर्षभ। अक्ष्णौनिमेषमात्रेण तदद्भुतमिवाभवत्॥
