________________
due to the rain of arrows at fast speed, the passage had closed. In such a battle many bows, two-edged sword, spear like tridents, shield held in left hand, shining sword just taken out from the sheath, spears, tomar weapon, wheals, gadaas, axes, dumble, ploughs, pointed weapons, sticks, bhindmaal, shabbals (iron thick rods), patties, launchers of stone, drughans (special type of spears), special weapons that could be held in the fist, mudgars, strong aagats, gophans, druhams, quivers of arrows, tube like arrows, aasan and two-edged swords were used. The sky was shining due to the use of such weapons in the same manner as when there is lightening. In that battle the attack through weapons is quite visible to each other. The conch-shells, trumpets, bugles, were blown. Drums were beaten. Musical instruments were played and the warriors felt happy and encouraged with that war music. A coward feels bewildered in that situation and trembles out of fear. So there is a great noise in the battlefield. A thick mist spreads all around due to the movement of infantry and the elephants, the horse and the chariots and spreads darkness. That battle causes terror in the mind of cowards.
In the next aphorism, the dreadful nature of the battlefield has been further narrated.
