Thus addressed by the king, they, inflamed and bent on slaying him, advanced upon the son of Satvati before the eyes of Drona. Then Duhshasana, having heard Duryodhana's words — that tiger among the Kurus — spoke these words to Duryodhana: "I will kill him, O great sovereign, I say to you — before the eyes of the Pandavas and Panchalas looking on."

Duhshasana boasts that he will slay the youth 'before the eyes of the Pandavas' — a boast born not of valor but of a wish to please his brother and belittle the enemy. Thus reveals itself empty bragging that promises before the deed is done. It is telling that the whole pack 'bent on slaying' moves against one youth 'before the eyes of Drona' — the teacher, who had just praised him, is powerless or unwilling to intervene. The verse teaches that boasting that outruns the deed is a sign of vanity, not of strength; that the wish to shine before one's own people drives one to evil more surely than enmity itself; and that the tradition, placing side by side Drona's praise and Duhshasana's bragging, reveals the difference between two souls — one honors valor selflessly, the other longs only to destroy it for its own glory.
