DRONA PARVA

"The boy was surrounded by a number

of them and deprived of his chariot; at that

time, Dussasana's son quickly struck him on

the head with his mace. That best among

men attained to heaven in this manner."
 

 
'ततोऽर्जुनो वचश्श्रुत्वा धर्मराजेन भाषितम् ।

उन्मत्त इव विप्रेक्षन्निदं वचनमब्रवीत् ॥
 

Hearing then these words spoken by

Yudhisthira, Arjuna said these words,

looking wildly like a mad man:

सत्यं वः प्रतिजानामि श्वोऽस्मि हन्ता जयद्रथम् ।'
 

" I swear in truth to you ; I will kill

Jayadratha to-morrow."
 

 
श्रुत्वा तु तं महाशब्दं पाण्डूनां पुत्रगृद्धिनाम् ।

चारैः प्रवेदितस्त्रस्तस्समुत्थाय जयद्रथः ।

दुर्योधनेन सहितो द्रोणं रात्रावुपागमत् ॥
 

Informed by spies who had heard that

huge shout of the Pandavas who loved

their son (Abhimanyu), Jayadratha rose up

and, along with Duryodhana, came to

Drona in the night.
