of weapons about to begin, Arjuna, the son of Pandu, whose ensign was that of a monkey, took up
his bow and said the following to Krishna, O Lord of the Earth!

Arjuna Uvaacha
Senayor ubhayormadhye ratham sthaapaya me’chyuta.
Yaavad etaan nireekshe’ham yoddhukaamaan avasthitaan;
Kair mayaa saha yoddhavyam asmin ranasamudyame.

Arjuna said
21-22. In the middle of the two armies, place my chariot, O Krishna, so that I may behold
