On the top of that chariot was mounted a tall standard bearing the device of a lion of golden manes. The standard was decked with banners of the hue of white clouds and it was graced with golden circles and pearls and corals. An umbrella with a huge golden staff was also placed upon that car that was groaning under the burden of weapons. When those horses decked with golden caparisons had been yoked to the car, the younger brother of Daruka, who was Satyaki's friend and charioteer came and represented to him that the car was ready, even as Matali informs Indra about the equipment of his car.
