तस्य तन् मतम् आज्ञाय पाण्डवः सत्यदर्शनः ॥
भीष्मं प्रतिययौ यत्तः संग्रामे सह सृञ्जयैः ॥
धृष्टद्युम्नस् ततो राजन् पाण्डवश् च युधिष्ठिरः ॥
श्रुत्वा भीष्मस्य तां वाचं चोदयाम् आसतुर् बलम् ॥
अभिद्रवत युध्यध्वं भीष्मं जयत संयुगे ॥
रक्षिताः सत्यसंधेन जिष्णुना रिपुजिष्णुना ॥
अयं चापि महेष्वासः पार्षतो वाहिनीपतिः ॥
भीमसेनश् च समरे पालयिष्यति वो ध्रुवम् ॥
न वै भीष्माद् भयं किं चित् कर्तव्यं युधि सृञ्जयाः ॥
ध्रुवं भीष्मं विजेष्यामः पुरस्कृत्य शिखण्डिनम् ॥

Having understood his intent, the truthful Pandava advanced toward Bhishma with resolve in battle, together with the Srinjayas. Then Dhrishtadyumna and the Pandava Yudhishthira, O king, having heard that speech of Bhishma, urged on their army: "Attack, fight, conquer Bhishma in battle! You are protected by Jishnu, the truthful conqueror of foes. And this great archer, Parshata, commander of the host, as well as Bhimasena, will surely guard you in the fight. Fear nothing at all from Bhishma, O Srinjayas, in this battle. Placing Shikhandin in front, we shall surely conquer Bhishma."

Yudhishthira acts not out of vengeance -- he accepts Bhishma's wish as part of the dharma of war. Shikhandin becomes not a trick for an unfair victory but the key to fulfilling the fate that Bhishma himself has disclosed.
