मार्कण्डेय उवाच ततो निविशमानांस्तान् सैनिकान् रावणानुगाः। अभिजग्मुर्गणानेके पिशाचक्षुद्ररक्षसाम्॥ पर्वणः पतनो जम्भः खरः क्रोधवशो हरिः। प्ररुजश्चारुजश्चैव प्रघसश्चैवमादयः॥

MBh 2 285.4
अमृष्यमाण: सबलो रावणो निर्ययावथ। राक्षसानां बलैघरिः पिशाचानां च संवृतः।५।। युद्धशास्त्रविधानज्ञ उशना इव चापरः। व्यह्य चौशनसं व्यूहं हरीनभ्यवहारयत्॥
