विगाह्य रथमार्गेषु वरानुद्दिश्य निघ्नतः । अग्नेः प्रज्वलितस्येव अपि मुच्येत मे प्रजा॥५-५०-३१॥
As he plunges into the chariot-lanes and strikes down the foremost warriors, my people would scarcely escape—like from a blazing fire.

Like a rutting elephant shattering flowering trees, Vṛkodara will enter, in battle, the army of my sons.

गङ्गावेग इवानूपांस्तीरजान्विविधान्द्रुमान् । प्रवेक्ष्यति महासेनां पुत्राणां मम संजय॥५-५०-३५॥
As the surge of the Gaṅgā enters the marshlands and the many trees along the banks, so will he enter the great host of my sons, O Sañjaya.
