THE MAHABHARATA
At the sight of that formidable and very
terrible shower of great missiles falling
from the demon Ghatotkacha and of multi-
tudes of their own forces being struck
down, great fear took possession of the
sons of Dhritarashtra.
ततोऽब्रुवन्कुरवस्सर्व एव
कर्ण दृष्टा घोररूपां च मायाम् ।
'शक्त्या रक्षो जहि कर्णाद्य तूर्णं
नश्यन्त्येते कुरवो धार्तराष्ट्राः ॥
All the Kauravas then said ( to Karna ),
seeing Karna and the terrible magic
(of Ghatotkacha) : Karna, quickly kill this
demon now with your Sakti; these Kauravas
and others on the side of Dhritarashtra
are perishing.''
स वध्यमानो रक्षसा वै निशीथे
मति दधे शक्तिमोक्षाय कर्णः ॥
Hit by the demon at midnight, Karna
made up his mind to hurl the Sakti
(at him).
