Then your sons, O king, and your warriors, O lord of peoples, seeing the king's chariot [being carried off], fled in rout by the hundreds. Seeing that army scattered in flight, O Bharata, Satyaki showered them with sharp, golden-feathered arrows, honed on stone. Having put all your armies to flight on every side, Satyaki advanced, O king, towards the chariot of the White-Horsed One [Arjuna]. Him — taking up arrows, protecting his charioteer, and freeing himself — your own men praised.

Satyaki does it all at once — 'śarān ādadānam, rakṣamāṇam sārathim, ātmānam mocayantam' — taking up arrows, guarding his charioteer, and freeing himself: one heart accomplishes many things. And he is praised by 'tāvakāḥ', your own warriors. It is telling that his valor, given over to serving a friend, is praised even by his enemies. The verse teaches that perfection in service unites many concerns in one and wins praise even across enmity: whoever fights while protecting the one he loves and himself, without losing sight of his purpose, is praised by all, for the beauty of devoted valor conquers even adversaries.
