Then other kings too, turning about on every side, mighty and valiant in battle, held back the Panchalas. Then in the battle the tiger among men, Parshata, together with the Pandavas, struck Drona again and again, wishing to breach the enemy host. Just as Drona pours showers of arrows upon Parshata, so too Dhrishtadyumna poured forth showers of arrows.

Dhrishtadyumna answers Drona 'shower for shower': 'yathā… droṇaḥ varṣati… tathā dhṛṣṭadyumnaḥ abhyavarṣata.' The one destined to slay the teacher does not yield to him in battle. It is telling that they are shown as equals: fate has brought two equals together. The verse teaches that the appointed instrument of destiny grows to match the very one he is fated to overcome: Dhrishtadyumna, born for Drona's death, fights him on equal terms; and in this equality lies the sign that it is not chance but destiny preparing the outcome.
