MAHABHARATA NOUN

See All Nouns, See All Categories

Mbh.7.7.218 And Kripa, and Kritavarman, and Chitrasena, and Vivinsati headed by Duhsasana, strove vigorously for protecting the left wing.
Mbh.7.14.593 Dhrishtaketu, engaged with Kripa, cut off diverse kinds of arrows shot at him by the latter, and then pierced Kripa, with seventy arrows.
Mbh.7.14.595 Kripa, however, began to oppose him with a thick shower of arrows.
Mbh.7.16.718 And with Bhima and Karna and Kripa and Drona and Drona's son and Prishata's son and Satyaki, the field of battle looked resplendent like the all-destructive sun that rises at the end of the Yuga.
Mbh.7.20.895 And Kritavarman and the illustrious Kripa formed the two eyes of that Garuda.
Mbh.7.23.1151 Obtaining weapons then from Bhishma and Drona, Rama and Kripa, prince Sarangadhwaja became, in weapons, the equal of Rukmi and Karna and Arjuna and Achyuta.
Mbh.7.23.1222 The noble Kripa, son of Saradwata, with many small arrows resisted Vardhakshemi of the Vrishni race who was the embodiment of wrath in battle.
Mbh.7.23.1223 They that looked at Kripa, son of Saradwata, with many small arrows, resisted Vardhakshemi of the Vrishni race who was the embodiment of wrath in battle.
Mbh.7.23.1224 They that looked at Kripa and Vardhakshemi, those heroes conversant with every mode of warfare, thus engaged in encountering each other, became so absorbed in it that, they could not attend to anything else.
Mbh.7.30.1593 Then Drona and Kripa, and Karna and Drona's son, and king Jayadratha, and Vinda and Anuvinda of Avanti, and Salya, received those heroes.
Mbh.7.32.1709 And the king was surrounded by the mighty car-warriors, Karna, Duhsasana, and Kripa, and had a white umbrella held over his head.
Mbh.7.35.1813 And Drona, and Drona's son, and Kripa and Karna and Kritavarman and Suvala's son, Vrihadvala, and the ruler of the Madras, and Bhuri, and Bhurisravas, and Sala, and Paurava and Vrishasena, shooting sharp shafts, checked Subhadra's son by means of those arrowy showers.
Mbh.7.35.1825 And Duhsasana pierced him with a dozen; and Saradwata's son Kripa, with three.
Mbh.7.35.1837 Then Karna and Kripa, and Drona and Drona's son, and the ruler of the Gandharas, and Sala and Salya, and Bhurisravas and Kratha, and Somadatta, and Vivinsati, and Vrishasena, and Sushena, and Kundavedhin, and Pratardana, and Vrindaraka and Lalithya, and Pravahu, and Drighalochana, and angry Duryodhana, showered their arrows upon him.
Mbh.7.37.1883 Careering with great speed like a circle of fire, he pierced Drona and Karna, and Kripa, and Salya and Drona's son, and Kritavarman of the Bhoja race, and Vrihadvala, and Duryodhana, and Somadatta, and mighty Sakuni, and diverse kings and diverse princes and diverse bodies of troops.
Mbh.7.37.1886 Seeing that warrior of great proficiency in battle, Bharadwaja's son of great wisdom, with eyes expanded in joy, quickly came towards Kripa, and addressing him said, as if crushing by that speech of his the very vitals of thy son, O Bharata, the following words, Yonder cometh the youthful son of Subhadra at the head of the Parthas, delighting all his friends, and king Yudhishthira, and Nakula, and Sahadeva, and Bhimasena, the son of Pandu, and all his kinsmen, and relatives by marriage, and all who are watching the battle as spectators without taking any part in it.
Mbh.7.44.2097 Beholding them broken and routed, Drona and Drona's son, and Vrihadvala, and Kripa, and Duryodhana, and Karna, and Kritavarman, and Suvala's son Sakuni, rushed in great wrath against the unvanquished son of Subhadra.
Mbh.7.44.2113 Then Drona, and Kripa, and Karna, and Drona's son and Vrihadvala, and Kritavarman, the son of Hridika, these six car-warriors, -encompassed Abhimanyu.
Mbh.7.45.2124 Then Drona, and Kripa, and Karna, and Drona's son, and Vrihadvala and Kritavarman, the son of Hridika, these six car-warriors, encompassed him.
Mbh.7.45.2129 And piercing Kritavarman with eighty shafts, he pierced Kripa with sixty.
Mbh.7.45.2132 Felling the steeds yoked to Kripa's car, as also both his Parshni charioteers, Abhimanyu pierced Kripa himself in the centre of the chest with ten arrows.
Mbh.7.45.2142 And Vrihadvala pierced him with fifty such shafts, and Saradwata's son, Kripa, with ten.
Mbh.7.46.2178 O king, think of the means of slaying this one, taking counsel with Drona and Kripa and others'
Mbh.7.46.2204 He, of Bhoja's race viz, Kritavarman then slew his steeds, and Kripa slew his two Parshni charioteers.
Mbh.7.70.3042 While afflicted by Karna and Drona and Kripa and others with sharp shafts of diverse kinds and bright points, my sons of little strength, must have repeatedly thought, My father will in this press be my rescuer'
Mbh.7.71.3103 Then Drona, Kripa and Karna and Drona's son, and the king of the Kosalas, and Kritavarman, these six car-warriors surrounded the son of Subhadra.
Mbh.7.71.3119 Whoever they may be that will encounter me in battle tomorrow for protecting him, be it Drona, or Kripa, O king, I will cover them all with my arrow!
Mbh.7.72.3144 Drona and Duryodhana and Kripa, and Karna, and the ruler of the Madras, and Valhika, and Dussasana and others, are capable of protecting a person who is afflicted by Yama himself.
Mbh.7.73.3220 Karna and Bhurisravas, and Drona's son, and the invincible Vrishasena, and Kripa, and the ruler of the Madras, these six will be in Jayadratha's van.
Mbh.7.83.3677 The ruler of the Sindhus did not, nor Bhishma; nor Salya; nor Bhurisravas; nor Purumitra; nor Jaya; nor Aswatthaman; nor Kripa; nor Drona, O Sanjaya!
Mbh.7.83.3685 O child, I have kinsmen to whose voice the Pandavas will ever listen, such, for instance, as Salya, Somadatta, the high-souled Bhishma, Drona, Vikarna, Valhika, Kripa, and others among the Bharatas that are illustrious and reverend in years.
Mbh.7.85.3760 Thyself, Somadatta's son, the mighty car-warrior Karna, Aswatthaman, Salya, Vrishasena and Kripa, with a hundred thousand horse, sixty thousand cars, four and ten thousand elephants with rent temples, one and twenty thousand foot-soldiers clad in mail take up your station behind me at the distance of twelve miles.
Mbh.7.92.4265 As regards the ruler of the Sindhus, he remained in the rear of the whole army protected by many foremost of bowmen and car-warriors numbering Kripa amongst them.
Mbh.7.92.4267 And for protecting his rear he had a number of warriors headed by Somadatta's son, viz, Kripa, and Vrishasena, and Sala, and the invincible Salya, who were conversant with policy and were mighty bowmen accomplished in battle.
Mbh.7.101.4687 Bhurisravas, and Sala and Karna, and Vrishasena, and Jayadratha, and Kripa.
Mbh.7.101.4710 And Jayadratha pierced Arjuna with three and seventy shafts and Kripa pierced him with ten.
Mbh.7.101.4716 And piercing the son of Somadatta with three arrows and Salya with ten, he pierced Kripa with five and twenty arrows, and the ruler of the Sindhus with a hundred, Partha struck Drona's son with seventy arrows.
Mbh.7.102.4734 The preceptor of the Pandavas, that Brahmana, given to ascetic penances, viz, Kripa the son of Gotama, had for his mark an excellent bovine bull.
Mbh.7.109.5168 Darting wrathfully through this force of Drona, like a fish through the sea, I will go thither, O monarch, where king Jayadratha, depending upon his troops, stayeth, in fear of the son of Pandu, protected by those foremost of car-warriors, viz, Drona's son Karna and Kripa!
Mbh.7.109.5204 Obtaining these, and countless Kshatriyas, as also Kripa and that foremost of car-warriors, viz, Drona and the ruler of the Sindhus, and the Karna, he thinks lightly of the Pandavas.
Mbh.7.132.6572 O Sanjaya, even Aswatthaman and the ruler of the Madras and Kripa, united together, could not stand before Bhimasena.
Mbh.7.134.6667 Bhurisravas, and Kripa, and Drona's son, and the ruler of the Madras, and Uttamaujas and Yudhamanyu, and Kesava, and Arjuna, these great car-warriors: O king, among both the Kurus and the Pandavas, loudly cheered Bhima, saying, Excellent, Excellent' and uttered leonine roars.
Mbh.7.140.7033 Wert thou taught this use of weapons by the high-souled Indra or by Rudra, O Partha, or by Drona, or by Kripa?
Mbh.7.140.7092 But deprived of reason, and forbidden by Krishna and the high-souled Partha, Bhima, and the two protectors of the two wheels of Arjuna's car, viz, Yudhamanyu and Uttamaujas, and Aswatthaman, and Kripa and Karna, and Vrishasena, and the ruler of the Sindhus also, and while the soldiers were yet uttering shouts of disapproval, Satyaki stew Bhurisravas while in the observance of his vow.
Mbh.7.142.7190 How will Dhananjaya slay Jayadratha in battle when the latter is protected by the king of the Madras and by the illustrious Kripa?
Mbh.7.142.7195 Do thou therefore, O Karna, with myself and other brave and mighty car-warriors, with Drona's son and the ruler of the Madras and Kripa fight with Partha in battle, exerting thyself with the greatest firmness and resolution'
Mbh.7.142.7218 Then Duryodhana and Karna and Vrishasena and the ruler of the Madras, and Aswatthaman and Kripa and the ruler of the Sindhus himself, excited with wrath and fighting for the sake of the Sindhu king, encompassed the diadem-decked Arjuna on all sides.
Mbh.7.142.7228 Baffling with his own weapons those of Drona's son and Kripa, he pierced every one of those warriors with nine shafts.
Mbh.7.143.7340 And the son of Kunti mildly struck Kripa with nine arrows, and he struck Salya with sixteen arrows and Karna with two and thirty.
Mbh.7.143.7367 And he pierced Kripa with twenty arrows and Karna with fifty.
Mbh.7.143.7390 And others concealed themselves behind and under the bodies of slain elephants Routing thy host thus, O king, Dhananjaya began to strike with terrible shafts the protectors of the ruler of the Sindhus with his arrowy showers, Karna and Drona's son and Kripa and Salya and Vrishasena and Duryodhana.
Mbh.7.143.7395 With many arrows that foremost of victors, viz, Dhananjaya, then deeply pierced in that battle Kripa and Aswatthaman, related as uncle and nephew to each other.
Mbh.7.144.7442 Sanjaya said, Beholding the ruler of the Sindhus, O sire, slain in battle by Partha, Kripa, the son of Saradwat, under the influence of wrath, covered the son of Pandu with a dense shower of arrows.
Mbh.7.144.7445 That foremost of car-warriors, viz, the mighty-armed Arjuna, afflicted by those arrowy showers of Kripa and Drona's son felt great pain.
Mbh.7.144.7446 Without desiring, however, to slay his preceptor Kripa as also the son of his other preceptor Drona, Dhananjaya, the son of Kunti, began to act like a preceptor in arms.
Mbh.7.144.7447 Baffling with his own weapons those of both Aswatthaman and Kripa, he sped at them, without desiring to slay them, shafts that coursed mildly.
Mbh.7.144.7448 Those shafts, however though mildly, shot by Jaya struck the two with great force, and in consequence of their number, caused great pain to Kripa and his nephew.
Mbh.7.144.7450 Understanding his master afflicted with shafts to be deprived of his senses, and believing him to be dead, the driver of Kripa's car bore Kripa away from the fight.
Mbh.7.144.7451 And after Kripa, the son of Saradwat, had thus been borne away from the battle, Aswatthaman also, from fear, fled away from the son of Pandu.
Mbh.7.144.7460 Kripa is the son of a Rishi; he is, again, my preceptor; he is also the dear friend of Drona.
Mbh.7.144.7472 While studying the science of arms at his feet, Kripa told me in those days, Do not, O thou of Kuru's race, ever strike thy preceptor.
Mbh.7.144.7473 That command of my righteous and high-souled preceptor I have not obeyed, for I have struck, the very Kripa himself with my shafts.
Mbh.7.144.7476 While Savyasachin was thus lamenting for Kripa, the son of Radha, beholding the ruler of the Sindhu slain, rushed towards him.
Mbh.7.147.7700 Neither Drona, nor the son of Radha, nor Aswatthaman, nor Kripa, O sire, is competent to stand before Arjuna when the latter is excited with wrath, And Suyodhana, said unto himself, Having vanquished in battle all the mighty car-warriors of my army, Partha slew the ruler of the Sindhus.
Mbh.7.148.7766 Why, when thou art alive, and Karna, and Kripa, and Salya, and Aswatthaman, O Kauravya, hath the ruler of the Sindhus been slain?
Mbh.7.148.7777 Kripa, difficult of being vanquished, is still alive, O king!
Mbh.7.152.7985 Then in the very sight of Karna, of Aswatthaman, of Duryodhana, of Kripa, of Somadatta, and of Valhika, the son of Pandu, that chastiser of foes, by a stamp of his foot, caused that car of the heroic Durmada and Dushkarna to sink into the earth.
Mbh.7.153.8146 Karna also, and Vrishasena and Kripa, and Nila, and the Northerners, and Kritavarman, and the sons of Purumitra, and Duhsasana, and Nikumbha, and Kundabhedin, and Puranjaya and Dridharatha, and Hemakampana, and Salya, and Aruni, and Indrasena, and Sanjaya, and Vijaya, and Jaya, and Purakrathin, and Jayavarman, and Sudarsana, these will follow thee, with sixty thousand foot-soldiers.
Mbh.7.155.8292 Sanjaya continued, While Karna was uttering those words, Kripa, the mighty armed son of Saradwat, smiling the while, addressed the Suta's son in these words, Thy speech is fair, O Karna!
Mbh.7.155.8312 Thus railed at by Saradwat's son, Karna, that foremost of smiters, answered Kripa in the following strain, Heroes always roar like clouds in the season of rains, and like steeds put in the soil, quickly yield fruits.
Mbh.7.155.8323 Kripa said, Little do I reckon, O Suta's son, these delirious saying of thine discovering thy thoughts, not deeds.
Mbh.7.155.8345 Sanjaya continued, Thus addressed by Kripa, Karna the son of Radha, O bull of Bharata's race, smiling the while, said these words unto the preceptor Kripa, the son of Saradwat, The words thou hast spoken about the Pandavas, O Brahmana, are all true.
Mbh.7.156.8375 And Aswatthaman said, O lowest of men, Kripa was speaking of the virtues truly possessed by Arjuna.
Mbh.7.156.8385 The king himself, of great energy, and Kripa, that foremost of men, held him fast.
Mbh.7.156.8394 Upon thee and Karna and Kripa and Drona and the ruler of the Madras and Suvala's son resteth a great burthen.
Mbh.7.156.8399 Then the preceptor Kripa, of noble heart, who is of a quite disposition, O monarch, and mild temper, therefore, returned soon unto him, said these words'
Mbh.7.156.8400 Kripa, said, O Suta's son of wicked heart, this thy fault is pardoned by us.
Mbh.7.156.8429 Thus addressed, Drona's son, and Kripa, and Salya, and that great car-warrior, viz, the son of Hridika, beholding the son of Kunti coming towards them like Sakra himself towards the Daitya host, all advanced against Partha for rescuing the Suta's son.
Mbh.7.156.8452 Then that bull among men Karna, afflicted with those shafts, specially jumping down from that steedless car, mounted upon that of Kripa.
Mbh.7.157.8507 Myself, Karna, Salya, Kripa, and Hridika's son, could, O best of kings, destroy the Pandava host within the twinkling of an eye.
Mbh.7.160.8663 And during the progress, O lord, of that terrible carnage of car-warriors and elephants and steeds and foot-soldiers, those heroes, viz, Drona and Karna and Kripa, and Bhima and Prishata's son and Satwata, afflicted one another and the troops of either party, O bull of Bharata's race.
Mbh.7.162.8766 Kripa, the son of Saradwat, O king, resisted Sikhandin in that battle, that foremost of car-warrior, as the latter advanced on his car.
Mbh.7.167.8997 Against mighty Sikhandin proceeding towards Drona, Kripa resolutely advanced with great impetuosity.
Mbh.7.167.8999 Then the preceptor, Kripa, that benefactor of thy sons, piercing Sikhandin first with five arrows, once more pierced him with twenty.
Mbh.7.167.9005 Inflamed with wrath, O monarch, Kripa then sped at his antagonist a fierce dart, equipped with a golden shaft and keen point, and polished by the hands of the smith.
Mbh.7.167.9010 Beholding him thus weakened, Kripa in that encounter, struck him with many arrows, from desire of slaying him, O Bharata!
Mbh.7.167.9013 Similarly, thy sons also surrounded that foremost of Brahmans, Kripa, with a large force.
Mbh.7.175.9508 Meanwhile, thy soldiers, O king, though protected by their leaders all over the field and Drona and Drona's son and Kripa and others, uttered loud wails, saying, All is lost'
Mbh.7.181.9856 What also did they do in battle, O sire, viz, Drona's son and Karna and Kripa and others headed by Duryodhana that protected the preceptor?
Mbh.7.185.10168 During that great carnage of the Kshatriyas on earth, on that field of battle, enhancing the terrors of the timid and looking like a crematorium neither Karna, nor Drona, nor Arjuna, nor Yudhishthira, nor Bhimasena, nor the twins, nor the Panchala prince, nor Satyaki, nor Duhsasana, nor Drona's son, nor Duryodhana nor Suvala's son, nor Kripa, nor the ruler of the Madras, nor Kritavarman, nor others, nor my own self, nor the earth, nor points of the compass, could be seen, O king, for all of them, mingled with the troops, were shrouded by clouds of dust.
Mbh.7.189.10461 None else have arrows of that kind, except Kripa, and Partha, and Aswatthaman and Karna, Pradyumna and Yuyudhana; Abhimanyu also had such arrows.
Mbh.7.189.10464 Then Kesava and Dhananjaya beheld Satyaki of prowess incapable of being baffled, who, O Bharata, was thus careering in the car-tracks of the Kuru warriors and within the range of the shafts of Drona and Karna and Kripa.
Mbh.7.190.10474 Kripa and Karna, of also thy sorts, O sire, in that battle, quickly approaching the grandson of Sini, began to strike him with keen arrows.
Mbh.7.190.10476 Karna, and the mighty car-warrior Kripa, and Duryodhana and others, all resisted Satyaki, pouring showers of arrows on him.
Mbh.7.190.10523 Desirous of laying aside all his weapons also, Bharadwaja's son of virtuous soul said aloud, O Karna, Karna, O great bowman, O Kripa, O Duryodhana, I tell you repeatedly, exert yourselves carefully in battle.
Mbh.7.191.10588 Saradwat's son, Kripa, too, fled away, saying, Alas.
Mbh.7.191.10619 Kripa said, Placing Drona, that foremost of car-warriors, at our head, we commenced to fight with only the Panchalas.
Mbh.7.198.11117 When the preceptor's son had fallen into that plight, thy son, that car-warrior, accompanied by Kripa and Karna and others began to cover the Satwata hero with arrows.
Mbh.7.198.11118 All of them began quickly to pierce Satyaki from every side with keen shafts, Duryodhana pierced him with twenty, Saradwat's son, Kripa, with three.
Mbh.7.199.11369 In that fierce battle, O Partha, making the very hair stand on end, who else, O Arjuna, than the divine Maheswara, that foremost of all bowmen, that Deity of divine form, could even in imagination venture to vanquish that force which was protected by those great smiters and bowmen, viz, Aswatthaman and Karna and Kripa?
Mbh.8.9.334 What did Sharadvata's son Kripa, O sire, of Gotama's race, that foremost of car-warriors, that teacher of the science of arms, say when he saw Karna slain?
Mbh.8.13.510 In that slaughter of great heroes, Dhrishtadyumna proceeded against Kripa.
Mbh.8.20.814 Sanjaya said, Bhishma and Drona and Kripa and Drona's son and Karna and Arjuna and Janardana, those thorough masters of the science of weapons, are regarded by thee as the foremost of car-warriors.
Mbh.8.26.1100 SECTION Sanjaya said, Kripa, O king, resisted Dhrishtadyumna in battle, like a Sarabha in the forest resisting a proud lion.
Mbh.8.26.1111 Drawing deep breath in rage, Sharadvata's son Kripa, O king, began to afflict the son of Prishata in all his vital limbs while the latter stood inactive.
Mbh.8.28.1192 Beholding him in that situation of great peril, Karna and Drona's son and Kripa and others rushed suddenly towards the spot, desirous of rescuing the king.
Mbh.8.30.1305 Cutting off then the bow of Drona's son and slaying the four steeds of the latter with his arrow, the son of Pandu next cut off the formidable bow of Kripa too.
Mbh.8.32.1456 Bhishma, and Drona, and Kripa, and thyself and the valiant ruler of the Bhojas, and Shakuni the son of Subala, and Drona's son and myself, constituted the chief strength of our army.
Mbh.8.41.2229 Why didst thou not slay Partha at Virata's city when thou hadst the advantage of being protected by Drona and Drona's son and Kripa and Bhishma and the other Kauravas?
Mbh.8.46.2515 Sharadvata's son Kripa, O king, and the Magadhas endued with great activity, and Kritavarma of Satwata race, took up their position in the right wing.
Mbh.8.46.2538 I myself will fight with Kripa.
Mbh.8.47.2622 Kripa and Kritavarma, and Shakuni the son of Subala, those heroes difficult of defeat in battle, accompanied by troops that were all cheerful, themselves filled with rage, and capable of smiting down thick ranks of cars, fought with the Koshalas, the Kasis, the Matsyas, the Karusas, the Kaikayas, and the Surasenas, all of whom were possessed of great courage.
Mbh.8.48.2659 Cutting off the bows then of Kripa and Hridika's son, he began to afflict those two also.
Mbh.8.51.2935 Beholding the son of Subala, and Kritavarma, and Drona's son, and Adhiratha's son, and Kripa, engaged with the Pandavas, the Kauravas rallied and came back to the fight.
Mbh.8.54.3049 SECTION Sanjaya said, Then Kritavarma, and Kripa, and the son of Drona and the Suta's son, O sire, and Uluka, and Subala's son Shakuni, and the king himself, with his uterine brothers, beholding the Kuru army afflicted with the fear of Pandu's son, unable to stand together, like a vessel wrecked on the ocean, endeavoured to rescue it with great speed.
Mbh.8.54.3051 The dense showers of arrows shot in battle by Kripa, thick, as flights of locusts, covered the Srinjayas.
Mbh.8.54.3052 Then Shikhandi, filled with rage, speedily proceeded against the grandson of Gautama Kripa and poured upon that bull amongst Brahmanas his arrowy downpours from all sides.
Mbh.8.54.3053 Acquainted with the highest weapons Kripa then checked that arrowy downpour, and wrathfully pierced Shikhandi with ten arrows in that battle.
Mbh.8.54.3054 Then Shikhandi filled with rage, deeply pierced Kripa, in that encounter, with seven straight arrows equipped with Kanka feathers.
Mbh.8.54.3055 The twice-born Kripa then, that great car-warrior, deeply pierced with those keen arrows, deprived Shikhandi of his steeds, driver and car.
Mbh.8.54.3057 As the Pancala prince advanced, Kripa quickly covered him with many straight arrows in that encounter, which seemed exceedingly wonderful.
Mbh.8.54.3059 Beholding Shikhandi covered with arrows by Kripa, O best of the kings, the mighty car-warrior Dhrishtadyumna speedily proceeded against Kripa.
Mbh.8.54.3060 The great car-warrior Kritavarma, however, rushing impetuously received Dhrishtadyumna as the latter proceeded against the son of Sharadvata Kripa.
Mbh.8.54.3065 The Pancala prince, however, whirling his sword repeatedly, cut off all those arrows, decked with gold, that had been sped at him by Kripa from all sides.
Mbh.8.54.3066 The grandson of Gautama Kripa then quickly cut off with his arrows the shield of Prishata's son, that was decked with hundred moons.
Mbh.8.54.3068 Deprived of his shield, O monarch, and placed under Kripa's power Shikhandi still rushed, sword in hand, towards Kripa, like a sick man towards the jaws of Death.
Mbh.8.54.3069 Then Suketu, the son of Citraketu, O king, quickly proceeded towards the mighty Shikhandi plunged into such distress and assailed in that manner by Kripa with his arrows.
Mbh.8.54.3076 With a razor-headed arrow then, Kripa struck off from the prince's trunk, while the latter was still trembling, his head decked with a pair of blazing earrings and head-protector.
Mbh.8.54.3078 Upon the fall of Suketu, O monarch, his troops became frightened, and avoiding Kripa, fled away on all sides.
Mbh.8.60.3527 Like bulls resisting bulls, the heroic Kripa and Karna and other leaders are putting forth all their valour for resisting the Pancalas.
Mbh.8.61.3561 Sharadvata's son Kripa proceeded against the mighty bowman Yudhamanyu, while Kritavarma of great strength proceeded against Uttamauja.
Mbh.8.61.3605 Yudhamanyu, piercing Kripa, quickly cut off his bow.
Mbh.8.61.3606 Then Kripa, that foremost of all wielders of weapons, taking up another bow, felled Yudhamanyu's standard and driver and umbrella on the Earth.
Mbh.8.66.3847 That which I had never before met with at the hands of Bhishma or Kripa or Drona in battle, that I met with today at the hands of the Suta's son, that mighty car-warrior!
Mbh.8.73.4361 Save thee, O tiger among men, what other man in this world is able to vanquish those fierce lords of akshauhinis, those unreturning and invincible heroes, all accomplished in weapons and united together, Shantanu's son Bhishma, and Drona, and Vaikartana, and Kripa, and Drona's son, and king Duryodhana himself?
Mbh.8.73.4403 The remnant of that grand master now consists of only five great car-warriors, viz, Ashvatthama, Kritavarma, Karna, Shalya, and Kripa.
Mbh.8.73.4408 If in consequence of thy regard for that foremost of men, viz, thy preceptor Drona, thou cherishest compassion for Ashvatthama, if, again, thou hast any kindness for Kripa for the sake of respect that is due to a preceptor, if, approaching Kritavarma, thou dost not despatch him today to Yama's abode in consequence of the honour that is due to one's kinsmen by the mother's side, if, O lotus-eyed one, approaching thy mother's brother, viz, Shalya, the ruler of the Madras, thou dost not from compassion slay him, I ask thee, do thou, with keen shafts, O foremost of men slay Karna today with speed, that vile wretch of sinful heart who cherisheth the fiercest hate for the son of Pandu.
Mbh.8.73.4422 Grinding those bulls among men, viz, Drona, Drona's son, Kripa and other heroes, he deprived elephants of their riders and mighty car-warriors of their cars.
Mbh.8.75.4549 Kripa and Shikhandi encountered each other in that battle, while Satyaki proceeded against Duryodhana.
Mbh.8.75.4560 Meanwhile Uttamauja, piercing with his keen shafts and cutting off with his bright sword the steeds of Kripa and those warriors also that protected Kripa's sides, quickly ascended the car of Shikhandi.
Mbh.8.75.4561 Beholding Kripa deprived of his car, Shikhandi who was on his vehicle, wished not to strike him with his shafts.
Mbh.8.75.4562 The son of Drona then, covering with his own the car of Kripa, rescued the latter like a bull sunk in a mire.
Mbh.8.78.4718 Or, what did Karna, that foremost of victors, or the warriors of my army in that battle, or Kripa, or Kritavarma, or Drona's son Duhshasana, say?
Mbh.8.78.4777 At that time, the king Duryodhana, and Duhshasana, and Kripa, the son of Sharadvata, and Ashvatthama, and Kritavarma, and Shakuni also of great might, slaughtered the Pandava warriors in hundreds and thousands.
Mbh.8.79.4796 There Kripa, and Kritavarma, and Drona's son, that mighty car-warrior, are protecting king Duryodhana, themselves protected by the Suta's son.
Mbh.8.79.4819 Thou art the equal of Bhishma, of Drona, of Drona's son, of Kripa.
Mbh.8.79.4872 Approaching then thy son, that foremost one among the Kurus, and saluted respectfully by him, Karna said unto that prince as also unto those two mighty-armed warriors, Kripa and the Bhoja chief Kritavarma, and the ruler of the Gandharvas with his son, and the preceptors and his own younger brothers, and all the foot-soldiers and horsemen and elephant-riders, these words, Rush towards Acyuta and Arjuna and close up their path all around, and cause them to be tired with exertion, so that, ye lords of the earth, I may easily slay those two after ye all will have mangled them deeply
Mbh.8.79.4883 Then Kripa, and the chief of the Bhojas, and thy son himself shooting showers of shafts, rushed towards him.
Mbh.8.79.4892 Then those mighty car-warriors, Kripa and Bhoja and thy son, standing at the van of battle, fell upon and shrouded that bull among the Pandavas, shooting showers of shafts, like clouds shrouding the dispeller of darkness.
Mbh.8.79.4894 His weapons destroyed by Partha's shafts, and his standard also having been crushed in that great battle, Kripa was afflicted with as many thousands of arrows by Arjuna as Ganga's son Bhishma before them on the day of his fall by the same diademdecked warrior.
Mbh.8.82.5030 Then Kripa, and the Bhoja chief Kritavarma, and thy son, and Karna himself, assailed Satyaki in return with keen shafts.
Mbh.8.83.5070 Addressing Karna and Suyodhana and Kripa and Drona's son and Kritavarma, he said, Today I shall slay the wretched Duhshasana.
Mbh.8.84.5110 Kripa and others, and those of the king's brothers that are still alive, with afflicted hearts, their rage quelled by sorrow, are tending Duryodhana, sitting around him.
Mbh.8.85.5156 Then Hridika's son and Kripa and Drona's son and Duryodhana and Shakuni's son and Vrika and Kratha and Devavridha, those foremost of Kaurava car-warriors, speedily proceeded against them, armed with their bows and mounted upon their cars of rattle deep as the roar of elephants or the clouds.
Mbh.8.85.5160 The prince of the Kulindas then vigorously assailed Kripa and his driver and steeds, with ten shafts made wholly of iron.
Mbh.8.88.5408 Then Duryodhana, and the chief of the Bhojas, and Subala's son, and Kripa, and the son of Sharadvata's daughter, these five great car-warriors, assailed Dhananjaya and Keshava with shafts capable of producing great pain.
Mbh.8.95.6080 Sharadvata's son, Kripa, O king, surrounded by the large elephant force that resembled a mass of clouds, proceeded quickly towards the encampment.
Mbh.9.1.19 After Duryodhana's slaughter, the three car-warriors of the Kuru side that were still unslain Ashvatthama and Kripa and Kritavarma, filled with rage, O monarch, slaughtered the Pancala troops in the night.
Mbh.9.1.48 On the side of the Pandavas seven are alive, they are the five Pandava brothers, and Vasudeva, and Satyaki and amongst the Dhartarashtras three are so, Kripa, Kritavarma, and Drona's son, that foremost of victors.
Mbh.9.2.87 Bhagadatta and Kripa and Shalya and the two princes of Avanti and Jayadratha and Bhurishrava and Sala and Somadatta and Bahlika and Ashvatthama and the chief of the Bhojas and the mighty prince of Magadha and Vrihadvala and the ruler of the Kasi and Shakuni the son of Subala and many thousands of Mlecchas and Sakas and Yavanas, and Sudakshina the ruler of the Kambojas and the king of the Trigartas and the grandsire Bhishma and Bharadwaja's son and Gotama's son Kripa and Srutayush and Ayutayush and Satayush of great energy, and Jalasandha and Rishyasringa's son and the Rakshasa Alayudha, and the mighty-armed Alambusa and the great car-warrior Subala, these and numerous other kings, O best of monarchs, have taken up arms for my sake, prepared to cast away their very lives in great battle, stationed on the field amidst these, and surrounded by my brothers, I will fight against all the Parthas and the Pancalas and the Cedis, O tiger among kings, and the sons of Draupadi and Satyaki and Kunti-Bhoja and the rakshasa Ghatotkaca.
Mbh.9.2.143 Tell me how the five Pandavas and the two Satwatas Krishna and Satyaki, and Kripa and Kritavarma and Drona's son, have escaped with life.
Mbh.9.4.224 SECTION Sanjaya said, Beholding the fallen boxes of cars, as also the cars of high-souled warriors, and the elephants and foot-soldiers, O sire, slain in battle, seeing the field of battle assume an aspect as awful as that of the sporting ground of Rudra, observing the inglorious end obtained by hundreds and thousands of kings, witnessing also the prowess of Partha after the retreat of thy son with grief-stricken heart and when thy troops, filled with anxiety and fallen into great distress, O Bharata, were deliberating as to what they should next do, hearing also the loud wails of the Kaurava warriors that were being crushed, and marking the displayed and disordered tokens of great kings, the Kuru leader Kripa of great energy, possessed of years and good conduct and filled with compassion, and endued with eloquence, approached king Duryodhana, and angrily said these words unto him, O Duryodhana, listen, O Bharata, to these words that I will say unto thee.
Mbh.9.4.285 Advanced in years, Kripa the son of Saradwat said these words weepingly.
Mbh.9.5.288 Having reflected for a little while, the high-souled son of Dhritarashtra, that scorcher of foes, then said these words unto Saradwat's son Kripa, Whatever a friend should say, thou hast said unto me.
Mbh.9.6.372 Indeed, Shalya and Chitrasena and the mighty car-warrior Shakuni and Ashvatthama and Kripa and Kritavarma of the Satwata race, and Sushena and Arishtasena and Dhritasena of great energy and Jayatsena and all these kings passed the night there.
Mbh.9.8.468 Then all thy warriors, with Kripa and Kritavarma and Drona's son and Shalya and Subala's son and the other kings that were yet alive, met thy son, and arrived at this understanding, that none of them would individually and alone fight with the Pandavas.
Mbh.9.8.489 On the right was Gautama Kripa with the Sakas and the Yavanas.
Mbh.9.8.497 Bhimasena and the great car-warriors among the Somakas rushed, O monarch, against Kripa, desirous of slaughtering their foes in battle.
Mbh.9.11.674 Beholding Shalya struck by the Parthas on every side, both Kritavarma and Kripa rushed in wrath towards that spot.
Mbh.9.11.677 Excited with rage, Kripa struck Dhrishtadyumna with many arrows.
Mbh.9.11.685 The preceptor Gautama Kripa once more fearlessly fought with Dhrishtadyumna, both exerting themselves with great care.
Mbh.9.12.729 Then the mighty Kripa, taking up Shalya, that bull among the Madras, on his own car, quickly bore him away from the field of battle.
Mbh.9.12.738 Kripa, and Kritavarma, and the mighty son of Subala, placing the ruler of the Madras before them, fought with king Yudhishthira the just.
Mbh.9.15.868 Shikhandi, supported by the Prabhadrakas, fought with two Kuru bowmen, Kritavarma and the great car-warrior Kripa.
Mbh.9.16.907 Filled with rage at this, Dhananjaya covered Kripa and his followers, as also Kritavarma, with showers of shafts.
Mbh.9.16.960 Then the mighty car-warrior Ashvatthama, and Kripa and Kritavarma, followed that car, desirous of rescuing thy son.
Mbh.9.17.1021 At this time Kripa, with six arrows, slew the king's driver who thereupon fell down in front of the car.
Mbh.9.17.1095 The valiant Kripa then, the son of Saradwat, O lord, beholding Hridika's son made carless, quickly bore him away, taking him up on his car.
Mbh.9.21.1307 Beholding that chastiser of foes made steedless and driverless, Kripa, O king, rushed at that bull of Sini's race, desirous of despatching him to Yama's abode.
Mbh.9.21.1308 Taking Kritavarma upon his car in the very sight of all the bowmen, the mighty-armed Kripa bore him away from the press of battle.
Mbh.9.21.1363 The five sons of Draupadi afflicted Kripa like the five senses afflicting a foolish man.
Mbh.9.23.1602 Ashvatthama and Kripa, and Kritavarma of the Satwata race, asked all the Kshatriyas there, saying, Where has Duryodhana gone'
Mbh.9.23.1612 Hearing these words of theirs, the mighty Ashvatthama, piercing through that irresistible force of the Pancala king, proceeded with Kripa and Kritavarma to the spot where Subala's son was.
Mbh.9.23.1630 Meanwhile, Ashvatthama and Kripa and Kritavarma of the Satwata race, not seeing that chastiser of foes, Duryodhana, amid the car-division, sought for thy royal son, Abandoning the prince of the Pancalas, they proceeded to the spot where Subala's son was anxious to have a sight of the king during that terrible carnage
Mbh.9.25.1676 Those three, Kripa and Kritavarma and the mighty car-warrior Ashvatthama, have left Duryodhana's side and taken up their position elsewhere!
Mbh.9.25.1695 remain also Ashvatthama and Kripa and the ruler of the Trigartas and Uluka and Kritavarma of the Satwata race.
Mbh.9.27.1852 In Duryodhana's army then, O monarch, which had numbered many hundred thousands of warriors, not another great car-warrior was seen to be alive, save the heroic son of Drona, and Kritavarma, and Kripa the son of Gotama, O monarch, and that lord of the earth, thy son!
Mbh.9.27.1877 They were Kripa, the son of Saradwat, and the heroic Ashvatthama, that foremost of car-warriors, and Kritavarma of Bhoja's race.
Mbh.9.27.1887 Those three car-warriors that formed the remnant of our army took me up on the well-adorned car of Kripa, and then proceeded to the Kuru camp.
Mbh.9.28.1951 SECTION Dhritarashtra said, After all the Kaurava troops had been slain by the sons of Pandu on the field of battle, what did those survivors of my army, Kritavarma and Kripa and the valiant son of Drona do?
Mbh.9.28.1960 After the Parthas had retired to their camp, Kripa and Drona's son and Kritavarma of the Satwata race, slowly proceeded towards that lake.
Mbh.9.28.2023 Hearing the noise made by the army of Yudhishthira, those great car-warriors, Kritavarma and Kripa and the son of Drona, said these words unto the Kuru king, Filled with joy and longing for victory, the Pandavas are coming hither!
Mbh.9.28.2027 Those car-warriors headed by Kripa, filled with grief, took leave of the king, O monarch, and went away to a place far removed from that spot.
Mbh.9.28.2032 Thinking of these things, O king, those heroes, Kripa and the others, liberated their horses from their cars and prepared to rest there for some time
Mbh.9.52.3783 They are Kripa and Kritavarma and the valiant son of Drona!
Mbh.9.52.3785 After Shalya's fall and the flight of Kripa and the others, Duryodhana, in great grief, had entered the depths of the Dvaipayana lake.
Mbh.9.59.4250 This sinful, shameless, and covetous wretch, surrounded by sinful counsellors and ever regardless of the advice of wise friends, met with his death even when he refused, though repeatedly urged to contrary by Vidura and Drona and Kripa and Sanjaya, to give unto the sons of Pandu their paternal share in the kingdom which they had solicited at his hands!
Mbh.9.61.4435 Bhishma, and Somadatta, and Valhika, and Kripa, and Drona and his son, and the wise Vidura, always solicited thee for peace.
Mbh.9.62.4526 The highly blessed Ashvatthama, and Kritavarma of the Satwata race, and Saradwat's son Kripa, should be told these words of mine, You should never repose any confidence upon the Pandavas, those violators of rules, who have perpetrated many unrighteous acts'
Mbh.9.63.4539 SECTION Sanjaya said, Having heard of Duryodhana's fall from the messengers, those mighty car-warriors, the unslain remnant of the Kaurava army, exceedingly wounded with keen shafts, and maces and lances and darts, those three, Ashvatthama and Kripa and Kritavarma of the Satwata race, came quickly on their fleet steeds to the field of battle.
Mbh.9.63.4548 Those great archers Kripa and others, beholding the monarch laid low on the Earth, became stupefied.
Mbh.9.63.4567 The king then addressed all those heroes headed by Kripa and said, This liability to death of all living creatures is said to have been ordained by the Creator himself.
Mbh.9.63.4593 Hearing these words of Drona's son, that were highly agreeable to his heart, the Kuru king addressing Kripa, said, O preceptor, bring me without delay a pot full of water
Mbh.9.63.4595 Thy son then, O monarch, said unto Kripa, Let the son of Drona, O foremost of Brahmanas, blessed be thou, be at my command installed as generalissimo, if thou wishest to do me the good!
Mbh.9.63.4598 Hearing these words of the king, Kripa, the son of Saradwat, installed Drona's son as generalissimo, at the king's command!
Mbh.10.1.25 What, however, did Kritavarma and Kripa and Drona's son do after my son Duryodhana had been unfairly stuck down
Mbh.10.1.39 At that hour, filled with grief and sorrow, Kritavarma and Kripa and Drona's son all sat down together.
Mbh.10.1.43 The two great car-warriors, Kripa and Kritavarma, succumbed to sleep.
Mbh.10.1.78 Awakened from sleep, those two illustrious and mighty persons, Kripa and the Bhoja chief, heard Ashvatthama's scheme.
Mbh.10.2.95 SECTION Kripa said, We have heard all that thou hast said, O puissant one!
Mbh.10.3.155 SECTION Sanjaya said, Hearing these words of Kripa that were auspicious and fraught with morality and profit, Ashvatthama, O monarch, became overwhelmed with sorrow and grief.
Mbh.10.4.203 SECTION Kripa said, By good luck, O thou of unfading glory, thy heart is set today on vengeance.
Mbh.10.4.215 Who is there that would, even if he be the chief of the gods himself, fight Drona's son, when the latter proceeds, accompanied by Kripa and protected by Kritavarma?
Mbh.10.5.253 SECTION Kripa said, A person who is bereft of intelligence and who hath not his passions under control, cannot, even if he waits dutifully upon his superiors, understand all the considerations of morality.
Mbh.10.5.309 Then Kripa, O king, and Kritavarma of the Satvata race, both followed him.
Mbh.10.6.313 SECTION Dhritarashtra said, Seeing Drona's son stop at the gate of the encampment, what, O Sanjaya, did those two mighty car-warriors, Kripa and Kritavarma, do?
Mbh.10.6.315 Sanjaya said, Inviting Kritavarma, as also the mighty car-warrior Kripa, Drona's son, filled with rage, approached the gate of the camp.
Mbh.10.6.341 Drona's son, divested of weapons, beholding that wonderful sight, recollected the words of Kripa, and turning pale with grief, said, He that listens not to the beneficial words of advising friends is obliged to repent, being overwhelmed with calamity, even as my foolish self for having disregarded my two well-wishers.
Mbh.10.8.453 SECTION Dhritarashtra said, While Drona's son, that mighty car-warrior, thus proceeded towards the hostile camp, did Kripa and Bhoja stop from fear?

Mbh.10.9.670 Beholding him thus lying on the earth, bathed in his own blood, the three heroes who were the sole survivors of his army, Ashvatthama and Kripa and Kritavarma, became afflicted with grief and sat surrounding him.
Mbh.10.9.674 Kripa said, There is nothing too difficult for destiny to bring about, since even this king Duryodhana who was the lord of eleven akshauhinis of troops sleepeth on the bare ground, struck down by the foes and covered with blood!
Mbh.10.9.709 Fie on Kritavarma, on myself, as also on mighty car-warrior Kripa, since we have not yet gone to heaven with thy royal self before us!
Mbh.10.9.711 Through thy power, the abodes of Kripa, of myself, and of my sire, along with those of our dependants, O tiger among men, are full of wealth.
Mbh.10.9.724 The seven on their side are the five brothers and Vasudeva and Satyaki; on our side, we three are myself and Kripa and Kritavarma!
Mbh.10.9.731 Duryodhana then, having heard those words that were so agreeable to his heart, regained his senses and said these words in reply, That which neither Ganga's son, nor Karna, nor thy sire, could achieve, hath at last been achieved by thee today, accompanied by Kripa and Bhoja.
Mbh.10.10.751 During the night, O king, thy camp has been exterminated by the cruel Kritavarma, and Kripa, the son of Gautama, and the sinful Ashvatthama!
Mbh.11.1.6 What did the three survivors of the Kuru army viz Kripa and the others do?
Mbh.11.1.42 Thy son, O Bharata, did not obey the words of Bhishma, the reverend chief of the Kurus, of Gandhari and Vidura, of Drona, O king, of Kripa the son of Sharadvata, of the mighty-armed Krishna, of the intelligent Narada, of many other rishis, and of Vyasa himself of immeasurable energy.
Mbh.11.9.393 And how did those three, Kripa and others, do?
Mbh.11.11.458 SECTION Vaishampayana said, Dhritarashtra had not proceeded for more than two miles when he met with those three great car-warriors, Sharadvatas son Kripa, Dronas son Ashvatthama, and Kritavarma.

Mbh.11.11.484 Having said these words unto the king, and circumambulating him, Kripa and Kritavarma and Dronas son, O Bharata, without being able to withdraw their eyes from king Dhritarashtra possessed of great wisdom, urged their steeds towards the banks of the Ganga.

Mbh.11.25.1030 The Pandavas, O Krishna, with thyself, are surely unslayable, since they and thou have escaped from Drona, from Bhishma, from Karna the son of Vikartana, from Kripa, from Duryodhana, from the son of Drona, from the mighty car-warrior Jayadratha, from Somadatta, from Vikarna, and from the brave Kritavarma.
Mbh.12.5.190 In consequence of a Brahmana's curse, as also of the curse of the illustrious Rama, of the boon granted to Kunti and the illusion practised on him by Indra, of his depreciation by Bhishma as only half a car-warrior, at the tale of Rathas and Atirathas, of the destruction of his energy caused by Salya with his keen speeches, of Vasudeva's policy, and, lastly of the celestial weapons obtained by Arjuna from Rudra and Indra and Yama and Varuna and Kuvera and Drona and the illustrious Kripa, the wielder of Gandiva succeeded in slaying Vikartana's son Karna of effulgence like that of Surya himself.
Mbh.12.14.559 That force of the enemy, O hero, ready to burst upon thee with all its might, abounding with elephants and horse and cars, strong with three kinds of strength protected by Drona and Karna and Aswatthaman and Kripa, has been defeated and slain by thee, O hero!
Mbh.12.45.2223 Towards Kripa, O monarch, the king behaved in the way one should towards one's preceptor.
Mbh.12.47.2538 Bhimasena and the twins rode on a third; while those bulls among men, Kripa and Yuyutsu, and that scorcher of foes, Sanjaya of the Suta caste, proceeded on their respective cars, each of which looked like a town.

Mbh.12.165.9916 From Kripa that best of swords has been obtained by thee with thy brothers.
Mbh.12.296.18481 My grandfather Vasishtha, Rishyasringa, Kasyapa, Veda, Tandya, Kripa, Kakshivat, Kamatha, and others, and Yavakrita, O king, and Drona, that foremost of speakers, and Ayu, and Matanga, and Datta, and Drupada, and Matsya, all these, O ruler of the Videhas, obtained their respective positions through penance as the means.
Mbh.14.60.2744 Indeed, tell me how that battle took place between the high-souled Pandavas on the one side and Bhishma and Karna and Kripa and Drona and Salya and others on the other side, between, in fact, numerous other Kshatriyas well-skilled in aims, differing from one another in mien and attire, and hailing from diverse realms'
Mbh.14.60.2758 That foremost of regenerate persons, ever boasting of his prowess in battle, was supported by the remnant of the Kaurava force consisting then of nine Akshauhinis, and protected by Kripa and Vrisha and others.
Mbh.14.60.2783 With Kripa and the Bhoja prince Kritavarman, the son of Drona represents the unslain remnant of the Kaurava army.
Mbh.14.61.2806 I hope that boy does not lie on the field, slain deceitfully by Drona and Karna and Kripa and others?
Mbh.15.1.20 The dear brother-in-law of Drona, viz, the very Superior Brahmana, Kripa, that mighty bowman, also attended upon the king.
Mbh.15.3.97 Vidura, and Bhishma, and Drona, and Kripa, said the same thing.
Mbh.15.3.172 Vaisampayana continued, Having said these words unto king Yudhishthira, the just, king Dhritarashtra, the son of Amvika, trembling the while and with hands joined together, further said unto the high-souled Sanjaya and the great car-warrior Kripa, these words, I wish to solicit the king through you.
Mbh.15.4.252 After the holy Vyasa had gone away, the royal son of Pandu softly said these words unto his old father, bending himself in humility, What the holy Vyasa has said, what is thy own purpose, what the great bowman Kripa has said, what Vidura has expressed, and what has been asked for by Yuyutsu and Sanjaya, I shall accomplish with speed.
Mbh.15.5.258 He was followed by Vidura of great learning, and his charioteer Sanjaya, as also that mighty bowman Kripa, the son of Saradwata.
Mbh.15.10.496 In eight and ten days that host was destroyed by the foremost of Kuru warriors, viz, Bhishma and Drona and Kripa and others, and the high-souled Karna, and the heroic Yuyudhana, and Dhrishtadyumna, and by the four sons of Pandu, that is, Bhima and Arjuna and twins.
Mbh.15.15.638 Vrikodara, the heroic Phalguna, the two sons of Madri, Vidura, Sanjaya, Dhritarashtra's son by his Vaisya wife, and Kripa, and Dhaumya, and other Brahmanas, all followed the old monarch, with voices choked in grief.

Mbh.15.23.916 The preceptor Kripa also, of Gotama's race, that great leader of forces, taking all the forces with him, proceeded, at the command of the king, towards the old monarch's retreat.
