Verse 35

²⁹Going into his city, he saw the best of the Bhrgus coming down on him with force, holding his bow, armed with arrows and axe, clothed in a black antelope's skin, his matted hair about him like the light of the sun. ³⁰He sent against him seventeen divisions, terrible beyond looking at, with elephants and chariots and horsemen and men on foot, with maces and swords and arrows and lances and hundred-killers and spears; and Rama, the Bhagavan, alone, cut them down. ³¹Wherever that man with the axe struck, whose force was the force of mind and wind, who cuts down the circles of his enemies, from there and from there they fell to the earth, their arms and thighs and necks cut through, their drivers and their mounts dead.

³²Seeing his own army on the field, in the mud of a flood of blood, shields and banners and bows and bodies cut open by Rama's axe and arrows and all of it brought down, the Haihaya rushed at him in rage. ³³Then Arjuna, with his many arms, set arrows to five hundred bows at once and aimed them at Rama; and Rama, first among all who carry weapons, cut them through together with the arrows of a single bow. ³⁴Again, tearing up hills and trees with his own hands in the fight, he came running fast upon him in the battle; and Rama with his hard-edged axe cut his arms off by main force, as one cuts the hoods from a snake. ³⁵From the man whose arms were cut away he took the head, as one takes a peak from a mountain. With their father killed, his ten thousand sons ran off in fear.
