Sanjaya said While the soldiers on both sides were thus engaged in fighting in their respective divisions your son, king Duryodhana, O lord of earth, ascending upon another car and being filled with great wrath, like a snake possessing virulent poison, addressed his charioteer, saying-
संजय उवाच संसक्तेषु तु सैन्येषु वध्यमानेषु भागशः। रथमन्यं समास्थाय पुत्रस्तव विशाम्पते॥ क्रोधेन महता युक्तः सविषो भुजगो यथा।
