  1. Beholding Dhrishtadyumna thus afflicted by Aswatthaman, like an infuriated elephant by a lion, five heroic car-warriors
  2. of the Pandava army, viz., Kiritin, Bhimasena, Vrihatkshatra of Puru's race, the youthful prince
  3. of the Chedis, and Sudarsana, the chief of the Malavas, quickly rushed against Aswatthaman. Armed
  4. with bows, all these rushed with cries Oh and Alas. And those heroes quickly encompassed the son of
  5. Drona on all sides. Advancing twenty paces, all of them, with great care, simultaneously struck the
  6. angry son of the preceptor with five and twenty arrows. Drona's son, however, with five and twenty
  7. shafts, resembling snakes of virulent poison, cut off, almost at the same time, those five and twenty
  8. arrows shot at him. Then Aswatthaman afflicted the Paurava prince with seven sharp shafts. And he
  9. afflicted the chief of the Malavas with three, Partha with one, and Vrikodara with six shafts.
