Twenty-two wazirs of note were taken prisoner. Ikhlas Khan and Bahlol Khan themselves were captured. In this manner was the whole subha destroyed. One or two thousand (soldiers) escaped, each man alone. Such was the battle (that took place). In that battle Pratap Rav Sarnobat, and Ananda Rav, and Vyankoji Datto, and Rupaji Bhonsle, and Surya Rav Kankde, Sidoji Nimbalkar and Khandoji Jagtap, and Gondji Jagtap, and Santaji Jagtap, and Manaji More, and Visaji Ballal, Moro Nagnath, and Mukunda Ballal, other wazirs and omraos of less note, exerted themselves hard. Similarly did the Mawle soldiers and Sardars toil hard. The commanders Moro Pant Peswa and Pratap Rav Sarnobat, both (distinguished themselves) by personal valour. And during the battle, Surya Rav Kankde, a Panchhazari of the army, a great warrior, fought with great valour. At that time, he fell struck by a cannon ball. Surya Rav was not an ordinary soldier. As Karna was a (great) warrior in the Bharat (so) was he his (veritable) image ; such a hero fell. Other heroes of note also fell, victory was won after such fighting.
