"Tomorrow Suyodhana will learn the worth of boastful words, when he sees his grandfather struck down by my net of arrows. And as for what was said in the assembly, when your brother Duhshasana, a short-sighted man, was addressed by the enraged Bhimasena — O Suyodhana, you will soon see that true vow fulfilled against him: against one ignorant of dharma, an eternal foe, evil of mind and cruel in his deeds. Soon you will see the bitter fruit of arrogance, of pride, of anger and harshness, of cruelty and insolence, of self-aggrandizement, of mercilessness and sharpness, of hatred for dharma, of unrighteousness and insolence, of transgression against elders, of a crooked gaze, and of all evil conduct."

Arjuna answers not on the level of insult but on the level of the kshatriya standard: a man relies on his own strength, not on hiding behind another's. His decisive blow strikes at the very foundation of Duryodhana's confidence: Bhishma, on whose might that confidence rests, will fall first. After the words of Krishna and Arjuna, war becomes an inevitable morning's business, and the order to stand ready already sounds like the opening of battle.
