"...I shall cast off my armor, O king, by truth I swear, touching my weapon. And if you think the son of Kunti, Arjuna, weary in battle -- hear his valor, O mighty-armed one, hear it truthfully, O Kaurava. Him neither gods, nor gandharvas, nor yakshas, nor rakshasas dare withstand in battle -- the angered Savyasachin. He by whom, in Khandava, the king of the gods [Indra] was met and repelled by arrows, though pouring down rain -- by that great-souled one the yakshas, nagas, and daityas, and others proud in strength..."

Preparing for a fatal battle, Drona nonetheless honestly extols Arjuna: neither gods nor demons can overcome him. It is telling that the teacher does not console the king with false hope, but speaks "truthfully." The verse teaches that courage is joined to truthfulness: a worthy man neither flatters nor comforts with a lie, even before death; and to acknowledge the enemy's greatness in the very hour one is called to face him is a mark of honor unbroken by either anger or doom.
