ततोऽपश्यं महाराज द्वंद्वयुद्धानि भारत यथाप्राग्र्यं यथाज्येष्ठं मध्याह्ने वै सुदारुणे वर्मणां तत्र राजेन्द्र व्यदृश्यन्तोज्ज्वलाः प्रभाः

English Translation

When that dense and awful cloud of dust was put down there were seen many single encounters, O Bharata, that the heroes fought at the noon each according to his strength and his rank. They were all exceedingly fierce. The sheen of the weapons in those encounters, O king, appeared full in view.
