Then your son, O king, having seen the army in such a state, Duhshasana, greatly enraged, advanced to battle against Arjuna. He, clad in armor adorned with gold, with a golden helmet, a hero of fierce valor, with a great array of elephants, as if swallowing this earth, Duhshasana, O great king, surrounded [blocked the path of] Savyasachin.

Duhshasana is not lacking in valor — «śūraḥ tīvraparākramaḥ», a hero of fierce courage — but his valor serves untruth. The image «grasan iva mahīm», 'as if swallowing the earth', is majestic, yet futile before Arjuna. It is telling that the very accomplice in Abhimanyu's death (whose son finished off the boy) now comes forth to meet the avenger. The verse teaches that even genuine courage, given to an evil cause, leads only to ruin: valor without righteousness is not salvation but a hastening of reckoning; and the guilty one, marching forth with golden armor and a host of elephants, walks to meet his own judgment.
