Know me, O bull among men, to be as competent a charioteer as Daruka of Vasudeva, or Matali of Sakra. This other handsome horse, the foremost of his race, that is yoked unto the left pole, is, I regard, equal in speed to Meghapushpa. This car is worthy of bearing on the field of battle a bowman like thee, and thou also art worthy of fighting on this car. This is what I think!"
