Verse

वेपथुश्च शरीरे मे रोमहर्षश्च जायते ।गाण्डीवं स्रंसते हस्तात् त्वक्चैव परिदह्यते ॥

Arjuna said: Seeing these my own people, O Krishna, arrayed for battle, my limbs collapse and my mouth is parched, my body shakes and my hair stands on end; Gandiva (Arjuna’s bow) slips from my hand, and all my skin seems to be burning.
