kṣurikābhistu kṣurikā bhindipālaiśca tadgatāḥ || 15 ||

Trappers with their traps and snares, attacked the darters of nooses and lassos (pasas); and the darters of javelins (sankus), withstood the darts of the dartsmen on the other side. Daggers were opposed to daggers (kshurikas), and cudgels were presented before the cudgels.
