But the two wheel-guardians, the Panchalas Yudhamanyu and Uttamaujas, having gone around the army [by] the outer [side], went [toward] Savyasachin. Those two, indeed, O great king, had earlier been held back by Kritavarman, [when] Arjuna entered your army, O king, [with] eagerness for battle. [With] those two brothers Duryodhana, mighty Bharata, entered [into] an excellent battle together, hastening, [with] the hastening brothers.

Arjuna's wheel-guards hasten toward him, but Duryodhana blocks their path: each is drawn toward his own duty. It is telling that even the instigator himself takes his stand in battle, carrying out his teacher's counsel. The verse teaches that in war each is drawn to his own portion: some to shield the one they love, others to bar their way, and the clash of duties gives rise to battle, where each, in his own manner, remains true to his own.
