vanquished Alambusha and attacked Droṇa (VII, 167). A battle ensued (description) (VII, 169); the Gāṇḍīva and the rattle of A.’s chariot were heard; Duryodhana despatched Çakuni against A. (VII, 170). A. deprived Çakuni of his chariot, etc.; Kṛṣṇa and A. blew their conchs (VII, 171). The Pāṇḍava host fled; A. and Kṛṣṇa rallied the retreating troops (σσ) (VII, 172). Dhṛshṭadyumna was deprived of his chariot by Karṇa, and ascended the chariot of A. A. and Kṛṣṇa and Yudhishṭhira conversed about Karṇa; A. asked Kṛṣṇa to proceed towards Karṇa. Kṛṣṇa said that none except A. and Ghaṭotkaca could encounter him; but A. must not do it as long as he retained the lance presented by Indra; “but Ghaṭotkaca will vanquish Karṇa.” They prevailed upon Ghaṭotkaca to encounter Karṇa (ηη) (VII, 173). Ghaṭotkaca slew Alambusha and fought with Karṇa (VII, 174). Kṛṣṇa urged A. to proceed in Bhīma’s wake and resist Droṇa’s division (VII, 177). A. shot many Kṣattriyas (VII, 178).
