But I do not know whose is this car with yokes and dresses and what for it has been shattered? Behold, O you the son of a King this terrible spot bathed in blood and raked with hoofs and wheels. Surely here took place a conflict. O you the foremost of those skilled in speech, it appear from these signs that this skirmish did take place with one, not with two. Here are not to be seen the foot-marks of a large army. It therefore dose not behove you to destroy the whole world for one's individual offence.
केन वा कस्य वा हेतोः सयुगः सपरिच्छदः। खुरनेमिक्षतश्चायं सिक्तो रुधिरबिन्दुभिः॥ देशो निवृत्तसंग्रामः सुघोरः पार्थिवात्मज। एकस्य तु विमर्दोऽयं न द्वयोर्वदतां वर॥ नहि वृत्तं हि पश्यामि बलस्य महतः पदम्। नैकस्य तु कृते लोकान् विनाशयितुमर्हसि॥
