Having heard, O Sanjaya, that the brahmin, his aged father, was unrighteously slain by Dhrishtadyumna — what did Ashvatthaman say? He in whom the weapons always abided — the human, the watery, the fiery, the brahma, the aindra, and the narayana — the mighty one; having heard that this most righteous one, the Acharya, was unrighteously slain by Dhrishtadyumna, O Sanjaya, what did Ashvatthaman say?

Dhritarashtra repeats the question "what did Ashvatthaman say?" three times, and in this insistence one hears fear of the vengeance to come. It is telling that he calls Drona "most righteous," slain "unrighteously": even the blind king recognizes the wrong done by his own side. The verse teaches that a guilty heart senses reckoning before it arrives; the anxious return to a single question betrays a conscience awaiting retribution for a trampled dharma.
