And Bhima pierced Chitravarman, the charioteer of the suta's son, with twenty-one well-feathered, sharp, deftly loosed arrows. Karna, the hero, pierced Bhima's horses, covered with golden netting, swift as the wind, with five arrows each. Then, O king, a net of arrows woven by Karna appeared at Bhimasena's chariot within half a moment.

Karna, "nimeṣārdhāt," within half a moment, envelops Bhima's chariot in a net of arrows: a swiftness bordering on illusion. It is telling that his mastery in speed seems like a wonder. The verse teaches that perfect skill appears supernatural: where the hand has reached its summit, its action is instant and untraceable, and a net of arrows arises before the eye can follow — such is the swiftness born of long-cultivated effort.
