The sons of Dhritarashtra attack in a swarm, but Bhima falls upon them "like a lion upon small beasts": for the fearsome one, a multitude of foes is but a herd. It is telling that here the disparity of strength runs the other way -- one is more terrible than many. The verse teaches that before true might, numbers shrink to nothing: where a lion rises, a host of enemies is but game, and the terror of one surpasses a crowd.
