Rahular Itihasa / M. N. Dutt · Karna Parva Chapter 19 · Verse 38
Sanskrit Original
रथांश्च बहुधा भग्नन् हेमकिङ्किणिनः शुभान्॥ अश्वांश्च बहुधा पश्य शोणितेन परिप्लुतान्। अनुकर्षानुपासङ्गान् पताका विविधान् ध्वजान्॥ योधानां च महाशङ्खान् पाण्डुरांश्च प्रकीर्णकान्। निरस्तजिह्वान् मातङ्गान् शयानान् पर्वतोपमान्॥
Now do you behold the most handsome cars, equip with golden bells and broken into numberless fragments, so also the large number of horses, that are smeared with blood; and again the bottoms of cars and long quivers; as well as several kinds of flags and standards. (Again do you behold) the large conches of the warriors; the yak-tails that are perfectly white; and the elephants whose tongues have come out (of the mouths) and that are lying on the field, resembling the hills.
