Bhagavad Gita 1-15


paaMchajanyaM hRuShIkEShO dEvadattaM dhanaMjayaHa

pouMDraM dadhmou mahaashaMkhaM bheemakarmaa vRukOdaraHa ||15||

"Hrishikesha blew Panchajanya and Arjuna (Dhananjaya) blew his conch named Devadatta. Bhima (Vrukodara) blew his great huge conch called Poundra."

In response to the sound of Bhishma's conch, Krishna blew his Panchajanya, Arjuna blew his Devadatta and Bheema his great conch Poundra. The author is slowly getting Krishna and Arjuna to the center stage. The first to respond should have been the CIC of Pandava army, but there is no mention of Drishtadyumna yet.
