Whirling the mace and piercing the heads of elephants, licking the corners of his lips and giving out (terrific) breaths every moment, making terrific noises in return of those of falling elephants and rushing with loud roars against elephants coming against him, having penetrated into the place where the chariots stand, when he kills the heroes after taking aim against them, will one of my soldiers escape from him who is blazing like fire?
कदां भ्रामयतस्तस्य भिन्दतो हस्तिमस्तकान्। सृक्किणी लेलिहानस्य वाष्यमुत्सृजतो मुहुः॥ उद्दिश्य नागान् पततः कुर्वतो भैरवान् रवान्। प्रतीपं पततो मत्तान् कुञ्जरान् प्रतिगर्जतः॥ विगाह्य रथमार्गेषु वरानुद्दिश्य निघ्नतः। अग्नेः प्रज्वलितस्येव अपि मुच्येत मे प्रजा॥
