c5.s6.326.4

Karna sorrowfully surveyed the slain brothers of Duryodhana, and was hard pressed by Bhīma, who was applauded by Cā., Bhūriśravas, etc. (ωω): Duryodhana dispatched seven of his brothers to the rescue of Karna; they were all slain by Bhīma (aaa); Bhīma lamented the death of Vikarna, who was dear to him. Then he with a shout gladdened Yudhishṭhira, who rushed against Droṇa. Beholding the slaughter of thirty-one of his brothers by Bhīma, Duryodhana recollected the words of Vidura (βββ) (VII, 137). Bhīma & Karna; a great carnage was caused by both (Sindhus, Sauviras, Kauravas); Cā. and Si. were amazed (VII, 138). Continuation: D-r., Si., G., and Vd. applauded the two combatants. Pierced by Karna, Bhīma's driver sought refuge in Sātyaki's chariot; Karna cut off Bhīma's weapons; Bhīma leaped into the sky in order to snatch Karna off his chariot; Karna concealed himself on his vehicle; the Kurus and Cā. applauded Bhīma; Bhīma's weapons being exhausted he fled away from Karna and defended himself with the bodies of the elephants slain by Arjuna; but, recollecting Arjuna's vow, he did not take the life of Karna; and Karna, recollecting his promise to Kuntī, did not take the life of Bhīma, whom he touched with the end of his bow and insulted with his speech. Arjuna then forced Karna to fly, and speeded a terrible shaft after him when he was retreating, which was cut off by Aṣvatthāman, whom Arjuna then forced to flee away (VII, 139). Dhṛtarāṣṭra lamented (γγγ).
