The narrator spares nothing even in describing Jayadratha's speech: it is "mṛdu ca ātmahitam ca… sāpekṣam", "gentle, to his own profit, calculated." Even the praise of Arjuna that he is about to lavish is prompted not by truth for truth's sake, but by the wish to bargain for his own protection. It is significant how the two are contrasted: Suyodhana is crushed, while his brother-in-law deftly weaves a flattering, self-serving speech. The verse teaches discernment of self-interest beneath soft words: speech calculated for one's own gain remains a bargain however sweetly it sounds, and the wise listen not to the sweetness but to the intent.
