EPIGRAPHIA INDICA
________________________________________________
[1] Arjuna alone could have been regarded to be as brave as Siṅghaṇa and could have been anointed by the
amṛit-ābhishēka. But he violated all rules of war in shooting arrows at Karṇa (Vaikartana) when the latter was
busy lifting up (udasti) the chariot-wheel with his hands. The Nivātakavachas (literally, ‘clothed in impenetrable
armour’), destroyed by Arjuna, were a class of Daityas descended from Prahlāda. [The correction inserted in
the first foot is unnecessary.─ Ed.]
