Shatrunjaya, Shatrusaha, Chitra, Chitrayudha, Dridha, Chitrasena, and Vikarna — these seven were struck down. Having slain them, the mighty-armed son of Pandu let out a fearsome lion's roar before the very eyes of Radheya. That roar of that hero, O Bharata, seemed to proclaim to the King of Dharma [Yudhishthira] that very battle and his own great victory.

The seven fallen are named one by one — the chronicle does not let them dissolve into a faceless count: every victim has a name. It is telling that Bhima's roar carries word of victory to Yudhishthira: his brother's feat serves the common cause, not himself alone. The verse teaches that the price of war is reckoned not in numbers but in names; and one who remembers the fallen by name does not let familiarity with death erase the weight of every loss.
