सात्यकिं समरे यान्तं तव पुत्रो न्यवारयत्॥ अभिमन्यु महाराज यान्तं भीष्मरथं प्रति। सुदक्षिणो महाराज काम्बोजः प्रत्यवारयत्॥ विराटदुपदौ वृद्धौ समेतावरिमर्दनौ। अश्वत्थामा ततः क्रुद्धो वारयामास भारत।॥ तथा पाण्डुसुतं ज्येष्ठं भीष्मस्य वधकाक्षिणम्। भारद्वाजो रणे यत्तो धर्मपुत्रमवारयत्॥ अर्जुनं रभसं युद्धे पुरस्कृत्य शिखण्डिनम्। भीष्मप्रेप्सुं महाराज भासयन्तं दिशो दश॥ दुःशासनो महेष्वासो वारयामास संयुगे।
Your son (Duryodhana) resisted Satyaki proceeding to battle. Sudakshina, the ruler of the Kamvojas, checked, O king, Abhimanyu as he was rushing against the car of Bhishma. Ashvathama inflamed with wrath, O Bharata, checked the two aged warriors, those crushers of foes, Virata and Drupada. Then the son of Bharadvaja carefully, fighting checked the son of Pandu (Yudhishthira), as he was proceeding desirous of slaying Bhishma. Then, O king, the fierce bow-man Dushasana checked in battle, Arjuna himself, who desirous of reaching near Bhishma was advancing, placing Shikhandin before him, and illumining the ten points of the compass.
