Thus charged by the king, the rakshasa of fierce valor, saying "so be it," the mighty-armed one rushed upon Ghatotkacha. Then, leaving Karna, the son of Bhimasena, O lord, crushed the advancing enemy with arrows. A battle broke out between them — the two enraged lords of rakshasas, furious, over a she-elephant, like two elephants in a forest. And released by the rakshasa, Karna, best of warriors, rushed at Bhimasena on a chariot with the splendor of the sun.

Two rakshasas clash "like two elephants over a she-elephant": the enmity of giants is likened to the blind rivalry of beasts. It is telling that the diversion of Ghatotkacha at once frees Karna — Duryodhana's plan has succeeded. The verse teaches that in a general melee, to draw off a formidable defender is to expose the one he was shielding; and a cunning calculation that splits the enemy's forces strikes truer than a direct assault — for what is divided is easier to overcome than what is joined.
