Looked like the fight that in the old days took place between the Gods and the Asuras. When Dhananjaya and Adhiratha's son had begun to defeat the warriors with their arrows, they, with keen shafts, almost covered all the sides.
बभूव युद्धं कुरूपाण्डवानां यथा सुराणामसुरैः सहाभवत्। तथा प्रवृत्ते तुमुले सुदारुणे धनंजयस्याधिरथेश्च सायकैः॥ दिशश्च सैन्यं च शितैरजिह्मगैः परस्परं प्रावृणुतां सुदंशितौ।
