In return, Abhimanyu pierced each of them with ten shafts. Then the ruler of the Kosalas pierced him on the breast with a barbed dart. Abhimanyu then felled on the ground his horses, his standards, his bow and his charioteer.
तांस्तु प्रत्यवधीत् सर्वान् दशभिर्दशभिः शरैः। तैरर्चमानः सौभद्रः सर्वतो निशितैः शरैः॥ तं कोसलानामधिपः कर्णिनाताडयद्धृदि। स तस्याश्वान् ध्वजं चापं सूतं चापातयत् क्षितौ॥
