O king! Satyaki also picked up the Sakti having golden radiance and threw it with full might on the chariot of Bhishma. That Sakti so thrown with full might by Satyaki rushed rapidly towards Bhishma in that great war. It appeared as if the Kalaratri (the night of devastation) is forwarding to grip the man.
वार्ष्णेयस्तु ततो राजन् स्वां शक्तिं कनकप्रभाम्। वेगवद् गृह्य चिक्षेप पितामहरथं प्रति॥ वार्ष्णेयभुजवेगेन प्रणुन्ना सा महाहवे। अभिदुद्राव वेगेन कालरात्रिर्यथा नरम्॥
