The valorous Satyaki, striking him as he charged with six arrows, then swiftly struck his four horses with four more. Then again, with sixteen smooth-jointed, swift arrows, Satyaki pierced Kritavarman in the chest. Tormented by the many keenly sharpened arrows of the Sātvata, o great king, Kritavarman could not endure it.

Kritavarman "na cakṣame," cannot bear the blows — wounded pride as a warrior rushes to answer. It is telling that here too, as with many in this battle, impatience with pain drives the response. The verse teaches that inability to bear an insult is the spring of hostility: blow awakens blow, and as long as fighters are moved by unwillingness to endure what has been dealt them, the circle of retaliation does not close — each answers, unable to bear it in patience.
