KAKNA PARVA
355
Then, Karna took (and shot) a very
terrible arrow resembling the blazing fire,
wishing to kill Arjuna.
स गाढविद्धस्समरे महात्मा
चचाल बीभत्सुरमित्रमर्दनः ॥
The great Arjuna, the crusher of his
foes, shook, hit hard as he was in that fight.
तदन्तरं प्राप्य वृषो महारथो
रथाङ्गमुर्वीगतमुज्जिहीर्षुः ।
रथादवप्लुत्य निगृह्य दोभ्य
शशाक दैवान्न महाबलोऽपि ॥
Taking that opportunity, the strong warrior
Karna, jumped down from the chariot
wishing to lift up the wheel that had gone
into the ground, and tried, holding it by
both hands but could not (lift it) though
he was of mighty strength, because of fate.
ततोऽब्रवीद्वासुदेवोऽपि पार्थे
छिन्ध्यस्य मूर्धानमरेश्शरेण ।
तथैव संपूज्य स तद्वचः प्रभोः
शिरोऽहरत्सूतपुत्रस्य [राजन् ] ॥
