"And there was no such formation at all, O lord of the peoples, as was arranged by Drona at the slaying of Jayadratha. In the battle there arose, among the flooding hosts charging upon one another, a roar as of oceans overtaken by a furious wind. Of the assembled kings there were many, O best of men, in your army and among the Pandavas -- thousands and hundreds."

Drona's formation had no equal, and the roar of the converging hosts was "samudrāṇām iva svanaḥ" -- like the roar of oceans in a storm. The images of the elements reveal that the strife had passed beyond human measure. It is telling that the skill of a single teacher raised up an unprecedented array. The verse teaches that even the greatest structure of human might remains as perishable as a churning ocean: its grandeur does not undo the fact that all of it is a passing storm, destined to subside.
