Sanskrit Original
ते नाविध्यत् परवीरघ्नो रक्षमाणोऽस्य गौरवम्॥ स तु लब्ध्वा पुनः स्थानं गौतमः सव्यसाचिनम्। विव्याध दशभिर्बाणैस्त्वरितः कङ्कपत्रिभिः॥ ततः पार्थो धनुस्तस्य भल्लेन निशितेन ह। चिच्छेदैकेन भूयश्च हस्तावापमथाहरत्॥ अथास्य कवचं बाणैर्निशितैर्मर्मभेदिभिः। व्यधमन्न च पार्थोऽस्य शरीरमवपीडयत्॥ तस्य निर्मुच्यमानस्य कवचात् काय आवभौ।
The slayer of hostile heroes, did not wound him for keeping his prestige. Again regaining his position Gautama speedily pierced Savyasachin with ten sharpened and Kanka feathered arrows. Then with one sharpened arrow Partha cut off his bow and gloves. Then he cut off Kripa's coat of mail with sharp arrows capable of piercing to the very vitals but he did not wound him. Then divested of the coat of mail his body appeared.
