He fell upon the group of kings and with his plough, caused all of them to run away
He deprived many chariot-riders of their chariots and wounded ,many of them. The poet Shyam says that in this way Balram exhibited his bravery to the warriours.1835.
Balram is proudly moving in the war-arena, filled with me and taking his sword in his hand, he is not caring for anyone else
He looks like the one intoxicated with wine and filled with ire and is killing the enemies manifesting himself like the dreadful Yama.1836.
In great fury, the heads of the enemies were cut down
The hands and feet of many have been cut and there are wounds on other parts of the body of many warriors
Those who called themselves as powerful ones have left their places and fled and the warriors inflicted with arrows look like porcupine.1837.
On this side Balram waged war like this and on that side Krishna, getting enraged, knocked down anyone with a single arrow, whoever confronted him
All the army of the king that was there, he despatched it to the abode of Yama in an instant
Seeing such a fighting of Krishna, all the enemies, forsaking their endurance, ran away.1838.
Those warriors who were feeling ashamed, they also now with the object of defeating Krishna, got infuriated and forsaking their hesitation and playing on their war-drums, came in front of him
Krishna holding his bow in his hand discharged his arrows and he knocked down a hundred enemies with single arrow.1839.
CHAUPAI
The army of Jarasandh was knocked down by Krishna and in this way pulverized the pride of the king
The king thought that then what step should he taken, and how should he die in the war on that day?1840.
Thinking thus, he caught hold of his bow in his hand and also thought of fighting with Krishna again
He wore his armour and came in front of Krishna.1841.
DOHRA
Jarasandh then taking up his bow and arrows and wearing his crown, said thus to Krishna,1842
Speech of Jarasandh addressed to Krishna:
SWAYYA
“O Krishna! if you have any power and strength, then show it to me
What are you looking at towards me, standing there? I am going to hit you with my arrow, do not run away anywhere
“O foolish Yadava! surrender yourself otherwise fight with me with great caution
Why do you want to end your life in the war? Go and graze your cows and calves peacefully in the forest.”1843.
When Krishna heard these words of the king, the anger erupted in his mind like the fire flaming up on putting ghee in it,
“O like the lion gets infuriated on hearing the howls of jackals, or like the mind getting angry on thorns being struck into the clothes.1844.
On this side, Krishna getting infuriated, discharged many arrows
On that side the king in anger, with reddened eyes, took up his bow in his hand
The arrows which were coming towards Krishna were intercepted by him and the arrows of Krishna are not even touching the kng.1845.
On this side the king is fighting with Krishna and on that side Balram said to the king, “We have killed your warriors, but still you do not feel ashamed
“O king! go back to your home, what will you gain by fighting? O king! you are like deer and
