In course of the horse’s wandering many great and wonderful battles were fought. The horse wandered over the whole earth; from the North it turned to the East; myriads of kings fought with A., because they had lost their kinsmen on the field of Kurukshetra, the same did innumerable Kirātas, Yavanas, Mlecchas, and Āryas. 74: The Trigartas attacked A., who in vain asked them to forbear; the Trigarta king Sūryavarman fought with A., who slew his younger brother Ketuvarman; then he fought Dhṛtavarman, was wounded in his hand and dropped the Gāṇḍīva, but took it up again and slew eighteen warriors; the Trigartas fled and accepted A.’s dominion. 75, 2188, 2190: In Prāgjyotisha, Bhagadatta’s son king Vajradatta (description) attacked A. on his elephant, but, after a fierce battle—76, 2195, 2197, 2207, 2208, 2209—during three days, he on the fourth day had his elephant slain, and promised to come to the horse-sacrifice. 77: The Saindhavas seated on chariots attacked A., who was on foot, recollecting Jayadratha; omens appeared; the Gāṇḍīva fell down; the gods, etc., shouted “victory” to A., who once more used his bow; the Saindhavas fled. 78, 2265, 2273, 2280: The Saindhavas once more rallied; A. urged them to surrender, but in vain; then Duhçalā, taking her grandson, the son of Suratha, in her arms, repaired to A.; A. cast off his bow, and asked after Suratha (the son of Jayadratha); she said that he had died from sorrow when he heard of A.’s arrival; A. comforted her; Duhçalā asked her warriors to desist, and returned home; at last the horse arrived at Maṇipūra—79, 2338—where Babhruvāhana, A.’s son by Citrāṅgadā, approached A. with humility; A. angrily blamed him for having fallen away from kshattriya duties. Ulūpī pierced through the earth and beheld her [step-]son standing distressed, and incited him to fight A., which he did; he even caused the sacrificial horse to be seized; gravely wounded, A. praised his son highly; at last A. fell down in a swoon, and so did Babhruvāhana. 80, 2371: Citrāṅgadā lamented. At last Ulūpī thought of the gem that has the virtue of reviving the dead; she got the gem; she placed it on the breast of A., and he revived. 81, (2402): Asked by A., Ulūpī explained that the Vasus for A.’s having slain Bhishma had cursed him; that he had died without having expiated his sin, and had gone into Hell; A. highly approved of this; he went with Oghavatī, a nāga, to his mother, and with her to the city; Babhruvāhana promised to come to the sacrifice; A. spent the night in the city distributing food among the poor; he was prevented by his vow of not sleeping in a house.
