Slew in that battle all the steeds of the king of the Shindhus, steeds that resembled (in speed) pegions themselves. Then your son Chitrasena of unequaled prowess and resembling the sovereign of the celestial himself, beholding, Bhimasena, rushed to battle with a view to slay the latter, riding swift on his car and with weapons raised over head Bhimasena also, roaring and uttering his warcry, rushed against him mace in hand.
जघान वाहान् समरे समन्तात् पारावतान् सिन्धुराजस्य संख्ये। स्तवात्मजस्त्वरमाणो रथेन॥ अभ्याययौ भीमसेनं निहन्तुं समुद्यतास्त्रोः सुरराजकल्पः। भीमोऽप्यथैनं सहसा विनद्य प्रत्युद्ययौ गदया तर्जयानः॥
