Then, Bhima came and took away Satyaki by force into his chariot and drove
away, for Bhima knew that Bhurisravas was an unrivalled swordsman and he did not want
Satyaki to be slain.
Arjuna killed thousands of warriors that evening. The soldiers,
dispatched against him by Duryodhana, perished like moths in the fire.
As the sun went down andBhishma gave orders
to cease fighting, the princes on the Pandava army surrounded Arjuna and greeted him with
loud cries of admiration and victory.
The armies on both sides retired to camp,
along with the tired horses and elephants. |
