As he hurled these most sharp, gold-bladed arrows of Drauni's, from behind and before, earth, sky, heaven, the intermediate points and the cardinal directions all became covered with arrows of terrible aspect. Of Sudarshana, seated on his own chariot, he -- fierce in splendor, equal to Indra in prowess -- cut off at once, with three arrows, the arms, gleaming like Indra's banner, and the head.

Ashvatthaman's arrows blanket every quarter of space -- sky, earth, air: the whole expanse becomes a single net of death. It is significant that with three arrows at once he severs the arms and head of Sudarshana the Malava -- precision equal to power. The verse teaches that fearsomeness reaches its limit when strength is joined to flawless skill; but even this perfection, given over to slaughter, only adds names to the mournful roll of the fallen.
