7.26

putrasya te raṇaśirasy ayam agrayāyī
duṣyanta ity abhihito bhuvanasya bhartā /
cāpena yasya vinivartitakarmajātam
tatkoṭimatkuliśam ābharaṇaṃ maghonaḥ //

’Tis King Dushyanta, he who goes before
Your son in battle, and who rules the earth,
Whose bow makes Indra's weapon seem no more
Than a fine plaything, lacking sterner worth.

Arthur W. Ryder 1912, Shakuntala (in Kalidasa, Translations of Shakuntala and Other Works)
