Then they loosed And Nanda pierced his drum, Ardjuna his, And Devadatta drove a well-aimed shaft Through both sides of his mark, so that the crowd Marvelled and cried; and sweet Yasôdhara Dropped the gold sari o'er her fearful eyes, Lest she should see her Prince's arrow fail. - [Previous: c9.37](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.art.havell-1908.c9.37) - [Next: c9.39](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.art.havell-1908.c9.39) - [Up: c9](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.art.havell-1908.c9) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.art.havell-1908.c9.38](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.art.havell-1908.c9.38) · Pramāṇa
