BHISHMA PARVA
303
अथ शान्तनवो [राजन्] अभ्यधावद्धनञ्जयम् ।
अर्जुनोऽपि धनुर्गृह्य गाङ्गेयं रणमूर्धनि ।
मावर्तत ततो युद्धं तुमुलं रोमहर्षणम् ॥
Then, Bhishma attacked Arjuna, and
Arjuna taking his bow, attacked Bhishma
on the battle-front. Then began a thick
battle that made one's hair stand on
end.
तत्र भीष्मश्शान्तनवो दर्शयन्पाणिलाघघम् ।
अलातचक्रवद [राजन् ] तत्र तत्र स्म दृश्यते ॥
Exhibiting his hands' ease (in shooting
arrows), Bhishma was seen there (in the
army) everywhere like a whirling fire-brand.
अदर्शयद्वासुदेवो हययाने परं बलम् ।
मोघान् कुर्वन् शरांस्तस्य मण्डलान्व्यचरँल्लघु ॥
Krishna showed great skill in (directing) the
movement of the horses; rendering Bhishma's
arrows futile, he made swift circuits (with
the chariot).
तथा भीष्मस्तु सुदृढं वासुदेवधनञ्जयौ ।
विव्याध निशितैर्बाणैस्सर्वगात्रेषु [भारत] ॥
