With equipment and platforms of chariots, with poles, shafts, and box-frames, with wheels and axles shattered, and with yokes broken in many places; with armor, bows, and arrows scattered here and there, with garlands, ornaments, and garments, and with great banners fallen; with elephants and horses slain, and with kshatriyas struck down — the earth there appeared terrible to behold.

This long inventory of wreckage — wheels, axles, yokes, armor, banners, bodies — paints the field as a heap of everything once made for glory and battle. "Dāruṇapratidarśanā," "of terrible aspect," — the earth shows the face of desolation. It is telling that everything precious and formidable is turned into a pile of scrap. The verse teaches that war returns every greatness to dust: chariots, weapons, ornaments, the very bodies — all break and scatter; and whoever beholds this field of wreckage sees the true nature of worldly might — its impermanence and its doom to decay.
