Arrows were showered on Sveta and the missiles sped across like lightning in
clouds. Sveta defended himself marvelously. He parried their shafts with his own
and cut their javelins down as they sped towards him. The warriors in both armies
were amazed at the skill displayed by Sveta. Duryodhana lost no time now and
sent forces to relieve Salya. Whereupon there was a great battle. Thousands of
soldiers perished, and numerous were the chariots broken and the horses and
elephants killed. Sveta succeeded in putting Duryodhana's men to flight and he
pushed forward and attacked Bhishma.
