c5.s2.392.2

the Prasthala king Suṣarman = left wing; the Tuṣāras, etc. (e) = right wing; Ṣrutāyus, etc. (ζ) = rear. The Pāṇḍava army was protected by Bhīmasena, etc. (η); the Kaurava army by Bhīṣma, etc. (θ). (1) Bhīmasena & Droṇa, who had his charioteer slain and then himself restrained his steeds. (2) Slaughtered by Droṇa and Bhīṣma, the Sṛñjayas and Kekayas took to flight; and so did the Kauravas, mangled by Bhīma aad Arjuna (VI, 75). Dhṛtarāṣṭra recounted the excellency of the Kaurava army, protected by Droṇa, etc. (ι). Neither men nor Ṛṣis of old ever beheld such an army. That it should yet be slaughtered, he thought was due only to fate (or to the Creator); Vidura had spoken well, but the wicked Duryodhana would not accept (VI, 76). (3) Bhīmasena & the younger brothers of Duryodhana: Duḥṣāsana, etc. (κ); Bhīma left his chariot and took up his mace. (4) Dhrṣṭadyumna (forsaking Droṇa) proceeded towards Ṣakuni; seeing Bhīma's empty chariot, he became afflicted, but was comforted by the words of Viṣoka; he took Bhīma, who was surrounded by foes on all sides, into his chariot. (5) The Dhārtarāṣṭras (Duryodhana, etc.) & Dhrṣṭadyumna (who applied the weapon Pramohana). (6) Droṇa & Drupada (who left the battle); the Somakas were struck with fear. (7) Droṇa, with the weapon Prajñā, neutralized the Pramohana weapon in order to rescue Dhṛtarāṣṭra's sons. (8) Yudhishṭhira sent the Kaikeyas, etc. (λ), headed by Abhimanyu, arrayed in a Sūcimukha, to help Bhīma and Dhrṣṭadyumna;
