Then the grandson of Shini pierced Drona, O king, with a feathered arrow, reaching his right arm, tormenting him, O bull among the Bharatas. Drona too, in the battle, O king, severed Madhava's great bow with a crescent-headed shaft, and with a chariot-spear struck down his charioteer. His charioteer, struck by the chariot-spear, fainted and sank down onto the platform of the chariot for a moment.

Drona now strikes not Satyaki himself but his charioteer: to deprive the chariot of its driver is to take away its motion. It is telling that the skilled fighter strikes at the support rather than butting head-on against the strongest point. The verse teaches that the wisdom of battle seeks the vulnerable link: where the warrior himself cannot be taken, one cuts at what sustains his strength — yet, as we shall see, even this stratagem will not break one who becomes his own charioteer.
