Both, having mounted a single chariot, father and son, great warriors, showered Partha with arrows, like two clouds risen over a mountain. Having pierced those two, O great king, the Pandava with sharp arrows, putting your army to flight, struck it down by hundreds with arrows. As clouds are scattered everywhere by the wind, so, O king, were the armies scattered, O lord of peoples. That army, O best of the Bharatas, thus being slaughtered in the night, fled in all directions, looking about, torn by fear.

Father and son shower Arjuna 'like two clouds over a mountain,' but the mountain stands: the army scatters before him 'like clouds under the wind.' It is significant that even the combined assault of two is powerless before one who does not waver. The verse teaches that there is a steadfastness which no number or alliance of attackers can break: as a mountain does not shake beneath clouds, so one firm in spirit stands beneath any onslaught; and before his unshaken firmness the very storm of enemies is dispersed.
