he said to Duryodhana that weapons appertaining to Agni, etc., were Arjuna and Kṛshṇa. Bhīshma tried to the side of his uterine brothers, by fight Arjuna, etc., though prot (Droṇābhiṣ.), VII, 1-11: 9 197; 8, 226; 10, 327; 11 Bhīshma, mentioning th Arjuna with the Gāṇ Yudhishṭhira dispo (crane), with Kṛ and Sṛñjayas were defeated by Droṇa; Yudhiṣṭhira asked A. to check Droṇa. Dhṛtarāṣṭra regretted that Duryodhana did not know Kṛṣṇa and Arjuna.—§ 590 (do.), VII, 12-16: ELEVENTH DAY (Sañjaya begins his narrative in detail): 12, 453; 13, (472): Droṇa promised to seize Yudhiṣṭhira, if he was not protected by Arjuna (with his weapons received from Indra and Rudra, etc.); Arjuna must therefore be withdrawn from Yudhiṣṭhira. Yudhiṣṭhira learnt through his spies that Droṇa had promised to seize him; A. consoled him. A fierce battle commenced; protected by Droṇa and Arjuna, both hosts seemed to stand inactive. In order to rescue Yudhiṣṭhira, A. attacked Droṇa's division. When the sun set, both parties withdrew their troops. The Pāṇḍavas, etc., praised Arjuna.—§ 591 (Saṃcaptakadhap.), VII, 17, 680, 688, 709: Droṇa confessed his inability of seizing Yudhiṣṭhira if Arjuna were by; the Trigarta king, saying that Arjuna had always injured them, said that they would take an oath that either Arjuna or the Trigartas should be slain. Then they summoned Arjuna to the southern part of the field.
