Sanskrit Text

दुर्योधनं चित्रसेनो विरथं पतितं भुवि अभिद्रुत्य महाबाहुर्जीवग्राहमथाग्रहीत्

English Translation

With their arrows, they cut off into pieces its yoke, shafts, fenders, the flag-staff, threefold bamboo poles and the chief turret. They also cut off his charioteer and horses. When Duryodhana thus deprived to his car fell on the ground, the mighty-armed Chitrasena rushed upon him and seized him with such force that it seemed as if his life itself was taken.
