Then, provoked, he pressed Dhṛṣṭadyumna’s four horses with four excellent arrows, O venerable one.

Then Dhṛṣṭadyumna, smiling, struck Droṇa with ninety sharpened arrows, and the warrior cried, “Stand, stand!”

Thereupon the mighty Bhāradvāja (Droṇa), of immeasurable spirit, again covered Dhṛṣṭadyumna—hard to endure—with volleys of arrows.

And he took up a formidable arrow aimed at the undoing of the Pārṣata (Dhṛṣṭadyumna), with a touch like Indra’s thunderbolt—like another staff of death.

O Bhārata, a great outcry arose throughout the entire army upon seeing that arrow set in place by Bhāradvāja (Droṇa) in the engagement.
