All the warriors headed by Dhrishtadyumna trembled (when they saw him) O kings; these are the eleven great divisions of your army. The seven divisions of the Pandava army were also protected by foremost of men. The two armies facing each other looked like two mighty oceans at the end of Yuga, oceans agitated by fearful by fearful Makaras Makaras and huge crocodiles. O king, we never be fore saw or heard of two such armies meeting each other as these two armies of the Kurus.
धृष्टद्युम्नमुखाः सर्वे समुद्विविजिरे मुहुः। एकादशैताः श्रीजुष्टा वाहिन्यस्तव पार्थिव॥ पाण्डवानां तथा सप्त महापुरुषपालिताः। उन्मत्तमकरावर्ती महाग्राहसमाकुलौ॥ युगान्ते समवेतौ द्वौ दृश्यते सागराविव। नैव नस्तादृशो राजन् दृष्टपूर्वो न च श्रुतः। अनीकानां समेतानां कौरवाणां तथाविधः॥
