Sanskrit Original
तां तामलम्बुषो राजन् माययेव निजनिवान्। तं तथा युध्यमानं तु मायायुद्धविशारदम्॥ अलम्बुषं राक्षसेन्द्रं दृष्ट्वाक्रुध्यन्त पाण्डवाः। त एनं भृशसंविग्नाः सर्वतः प्रवरा रथैः॥ अभ्यद्रवन्त संक्रुद्धा भीमसेनादयो नृप। त एनं कोष्ठकीकृत्य रथवंशेन मारिष॥ सर्वतो व्यकिरन् बाणैरुल्काभिरिव कुञ्जरम्। स तेषामस्त्रेवेगं तं प्रतिहत्यास्त्रमायया॥

Preyed upon by anxiety and excited with rage, Bhimasena and others, supported by many best car-warriors, assailed him with force. ( sire, then they having completely surrounded him with the host of their cars covered him from all sides, with their arrows, like men covering an elephant with blazing brands. Checking the force of their weapons with the illusive weapons of his own.
