All of them, readied fighters, scattering swarms of arrows, hastening, O great king, fought with Yuyudhana. Drona struck him with seventy-seven sharp arrows, Durmarshana with twelve, Duhsaha with ten arrows; and Vikarna pierced him in the left side and in the space between the breasts with thirty heron-feathered arrows.

A whole host — Drona and the sons of Dhritarashtra — falls upon Satyaki alone: where one man is formidable, many gather against him. It is telling that this disproportion of forces betrays how terrible a single warrior appears to them. The verse teaches that a man's valor is measured by the number who rise against him: the more enemies close around the one, the more manifest his might — and the more glorious it is if he stands firm.
