kimadbhutatamaṃ loke bhavitā'pyathavā hyabhūt | yadaśvānpārthagovindau pāyayāmāsatū raṇe

"What in the world could be more marvellous, now or ever, than that Partha and Govinda in the midst of battle made their horses drink?"

Note on the text: Corrected पार्थ गोविन्दौ → पार्थगोविन्दौ (misprint in Wikisource; a stray word space made the compound "Partha and Govinda" read as a vocative; CE pārthagovindau). Speaker: the page's heading "कौरवा ऊचुः" is kept (the Kauravas' remark on the horses being watered).

Verse 11 (7.100.11)

भयं विपुलमस्मासु तावधत्तां नरोत्तमौ । तेजो विदधतुश्चोग्रं यत्सैन्यं तावकं विभो । दधारैको रणे पार्थो वेलेवोद्वृत्तमर्णवम् ॥

पार्थस्य शरसञ्छन्ने तस्मिन्सद्मनि भारत । आकाशमिव सम्प्राप्य विचेरुस्तत्र पक्षिणः ॥

pārthasya śarasañchanne tasminsadmani bhārata | ākāśamiva samprāpya vicerustatra pakṣiṇaḥ

In that house covered over with Partha's arrows, O Bharata, birds ranged about as though they had reached the open sky.

viniḥsvasantaste rājanbhagnadaṃṣṭrā ivoragāḥ | dhigaho'tigataḥ pārthaḥ kṛṣṇaścetyabruvanpṛthak
