keṣāṃ yūnāṃ mukhavarṇāḥ prasannāḥ sarvaṃ hyetadbrūhi tattvaṃ yathāvat || 2 ||

Dhritarashtra said,--"When the Sun rose, O Sanjaya, of my army led by Bhishma and the Pandava army led by Bhima, which first cheerfully approached the other, desirous of fight? To which side were the Sun, the Moon and the wind hostile, and against whom did the beasts of prey utter inauspicious sounds? Who were those young men, the complexions of whose faces were cheerful? Tell me all these truly and duly."
