ततो दुर्योधनो राजा भारद्वाजम् अभाषत ॥
पूर्वं दृष्ट्वा वधं घोरं बलस्य बलिनां वरः ॥
भ्रातॄणां च वधं युद्धे स्मरमाणो महारथः ॥
आचार्य सततं त्वं हि हितकामो ममानघ ॥
वयं हि त्वां समाश्रित्य भीष्मं चैव पितामहम् ॥
देवान् अपि रणे जेतुं प्रार्थयामो न संशयः ॥
किम् उ पाण्डुसुतान् युद्धे हीनवीर्यपराक्रमान् ॥
एवम् उक्तस् ततो द्रोणस् तव पुत्रेण मारिष ॥
अभिनत् पाण्डवानीकं प्रेक्षमाणस्य सात्यकेः ॥
सात्यकिस् तु तदा द्रोणं वारयाम् आस भारत ॥
ततः प्रववृते युद्धं तुमुलं लोमहर्षणम् ॥

Then King Duryodhana, the best of the mighty, remembering the earlier terrible slaughter of his army and the killing of his brothers in battle, addressed Bharadvaja: 'Teacher, you have always wished me well, faultless one. Relying upon you and upon grandfather Bhishma, we hope without doubt to conquer even the gods in battle — how much more the sons of Pandu, who are deficient in valor and prowess.' After these words of your son, O venerable one, Drona broke through the Pandava army before the very eyes of Satyaki. But Satyaki then held Drona back, O Bharata, and a tumultuous, hair-raising battle broke out.

Duryodhana still speaks the language of self-assurance, though he has just been shaken by his losses. He belittles the Pandavas in words, yet asks Drona to intervene himself — because the battlefield has already refuted his speech.
