आयुधैः खड्गनीरन्ध्रं शरैः शलभनिर्भरम् ।
रक्ताभास्थिरसंध्याढ्यं ससिद्धपुरुषं शवैः ॥ १६ ॥

āyudhaiḥ khaḍganīrandhraṃ śaraiḥ śalabhanirbharam |
raktābhāsthirasaṃdhyāḍhyaṃ sasiddhapuruṣaṃ śavaiḥ || 16 ||

The pointed weapons were as fixed as the snouts of unicorns, and the flying darts fled about as butterflies in the air. The bloody field presented a picture of the ruddy dawn and dusk, and the dead bodies on the ground, represented the figures of motionless saints in their Yoga.
