यस्य प्रसादात् कर्माणि कुर्वन्ति पुरुषर्षभाः ॥
अमानुषाणि संग्रामे देवैर् असुकराणि च ॥
तस्मिन्न् आक्रुश्यति द्रोणे समक्षं पापकर्मिणः ॥
नामर्षं तत्र कुर्वन्ति धिक् क्षत्रं धिग् अमर्षितम् ॥
पार्थाः सर्वे च राजानः पृथिव्यां ये धनुर्धराः ॥
श्रुत्वा किम् आहुः पाञ्चाल्यं तन् ममाचक्ष्व संजय ॥

'By whose grace the bulls among men perform deeds superhuman in battle and hard even for the gods to accomplish — when that sinner reviles Drona before everyone's eyes, and [they] show no indignation — shame on kshatriya-hood, shame on their forbearance [inaction]! All the Parthas and the kings who are bowmen on earth, having heard him, what did they say to the son of Panchala? Tell me that, Sanjaya.'

Dhritarashtra rebukes the silent Pandavas: shame on warriors who endured the vilification of their teacher. It is telling that he himself is eager to hear their answer — the blind king greedily catches every echo of discord in the enemy camp. The verse teaches that silent tolerance of the abuse of a worthy man is itself complicity; yet the blind king's indignation is also double-edged — for the gravest dishonor to Drona lay not in Dhrishtadyumna's words but in the very death to which the Kauravas' stubborn wrongdoing led.
