Abandoning the chariot whose horses had been slain, Durmukha, dejected, then mounted the chariot of Niramitra, O Bharata. Sahadeva then, enraged, slew Niramitra, the slayer of enemy heroes, in the midst of the host with a broad-headed arrow, in the great battle. And he, Niramitra, lord of the people, son of the king of the Trigartas, fell from the platform of the chariot, throwing your army into turmoil.

Durmukha saves himself by mounting Niramitra's chariot -- and thereby draws down ruin on his host: Niramitra falls, struck down. It is telling that a fleeing man brings misfortune even upon the one who sheltered him. The verse teaches that closeness to one pursued by misfortune is not safe; he who took the doomed man onto his chariot shared his fate, and in a moment of general collapse the rescue of one often becomes the ruin of another.
