Sanskrit Original
संजय उवाच सम्प्रद्रुतः क्रोधविषो व्यादितास्यशरासनः। तीक्ष्णधारेषुदशनः शितनाराचदंष्ट्रवान्॥ संरम्भामर्षताम्राक्षो महोरग इव श्वसन्। नरवीरः प्रमुदितः शौणैरश्वैर्महाजवैः॥ उत्पतद्भिरिवाकाशे क्रामद्भिरिव पर्वतम्। रुक्मपुङ्खाञ्छरानस्यन् युयुधानमुपाद्रवत्॥
Sanjaya said Then Drona, like a huge snake having wrath for his poison, the stretched bow for his wide open mouth, sharp Narachas for his teeth, whetted arrows for his fangs, with woves coppery in rage and breathing like a furnacethat undaunted warrior, borne by his fleet steeds of crimson hue that appeared to soar high into the heavens or get at the summit of the highest of mountains, advanced against Yuyudhana, scattering right and left his arrows furnished with golden wings.
