Karna slew Ghaṭotkaca with his celestial dart (VII, 179). Kṛṣṇa with transports of delight embraced *A.*, because Karṇa's dart could no more kill *A.* (VII, 180). Kṛṣṇa's policy was the reason why Karṇa had never hurled the fatal dart at *A.* (VII, 182). — § 601 (Droṇavadhap.), VII, 184-185: CONTINUATION OF THE NIGHT AFTER THE FOURTEENTH DAY: 184, 8895; 185, 8431, 8440, 8441, 8445, 8448, 8449: *A.* granted permission to the warriors to sleep. D., R., and soldiers applauded *A.*; all the combatants lay down on the field to sleep (description); the Kaurava troops blessed *A.* for his act of kindness.

Urged by Kṛṣṇa *A.* moved to the left of Droṇa and Karṇa. Bhīma urged *A.* to put forth all his vigour. *A.* fought with Droṇa, Karṇa, etc. (δ) (description); he was assisted by Drupada, etc. Soon the morning sun arose (VII, 186). The battle was revived (VII, 187). D., G., R., Si., Aps., Y., and Rā.
