The preceptor of the Pandavas, that Brahman devoted to ascetic observances, viz., Kripa the son of Gautama, had for his device an excellent bovine bull. O king, the illustrious Kripa with that bovine bull on his standard, looked as effulgent as the Destroyer of the three-fortresses (Mahadeva) looks with his bull.
आचार्यस्य तु पाण्डूनां ब्राह्मणस्य तपस्विनः॥ गोवृषो गौतमस्यासीत् कृपस्य सुपरिष्कृतः। स तेन भ्राजते राजन् गोवृषेण महारथः॥ त्रिपुरनरथो यद्वद् गोवृषेण विराजता।
