Having heard those words of the cruel-deeded son of Drupada, all the kings fell silent, o lord of peoples. Arjuna, glancing sidelong and askance at Parshata, sighed with tears and said, 'Shame, shame, shame!' Yudhishthira, Bhima, the twins, Krishna, and the rest were greatly abashed, o king; Satyaki spoke thus.

Dhrishtadyumna's defense is met with general shame and Arjuna's sidelong glance: the justification of wrongdoing did not persuade but troubled. It is telling that even Krishna is among the ashamed — the mere presence of conscience makes silence oppressive. The verse teaches that eloquent self-justification does not remove shame from those complicit in it; and when truth is wounded, the noble lower their eyes — for no one knows better than they how shaky are the arguments used to cover what was done.
