Seeing them swiftly rushing, Shaineya, slayer of foemen's heroes, the mighty-armed, met [them], releasing many arrows. There the hero, the great archer Satyaki, furious in battle, severed heads with fierce, smooth-jointed arrows. Trunks of elephants, necks of horses, and arms with weapons -- that Madhava struck down with razor-tipped arrows among your [warriors]. With fallen fans and white parasols, O Bharata, the earth became strewn, as the sky with stars, O lord.

One stands against many -- and the ground beneath him is covered with the fans and parasols of the fallen, 'like the sky with stars.' It is significant that the marks of royalty -- white parasols, fans -- turn into the starry wreckage of slaughter. The verse teaches that the greatness of one valiant man can turn a whole encirclement to dust; and the splendid tokens of power, scattered across the field, glimmer like stars -- a silent monument to the vanity of might before true courage.
