That arrow, O king, penetrated the body of Pandu's son and reaching his very vitals caused him great pain. The delighter of the Kurus, Dhananjaya, deeply pierced therewith by his son, then dropped down in a swoon on the Earth, O king! When that hero, that bearer of the burthens of the Kurus, fell down, the son of Chitrangada also became unconscious. The latter's swoon was owing to his exertions in battle as also to his grief at seeing his father killed.
