[At] this very time the hastening great warriors pierced Kritavarman deeply with arrows [in] battle. Then, having taken another bow and abandoned that great bow, shattered, O best of the Bharatas, the son of Hridika, slayer of enemy heroes, pierced the Pandavas in battle with three straight-flying [arrows] each, and pierced Shikhandin with three and then with five.

Kritavarman, having lost his bow, at once takes up another and continues to strike: his tirelessness gives the enemy no respite. It is significant that even under deep wounds he does not leave the fight. The verse teaches that steadfastness is measured by the ability to go on despite loss: whoever, wounded and disarmed, takes up the task again shows a firmness of spirit that neither wounds nor the loss of weapons can break.
