Duryodhana’s Post-Duel Lament and Instructions (भग्नसक्थस्य विलापः)
न्यवेदयद् रथं सज्जं केशवाय महात्मने । केशवका यह आदेश सुनकर दारुकने बड़ी उतावलीके साथ रथको सुसज्जित किया और उन महात्माको इसकी सूचना दी
nyavedayad rathaṃ sajjaṃ keśavāya mahātmane |
Vaiśampāyana sprach: Dāruka, der Keśavas Weisung vernommen hatte, ließ den Wagen unverzüglich vollständig herrichten und meldete dann dem großherzigen Keśava, er sei bereit.

The verse highlights dharmic service: a subordinate carries out a rightful command quickly and accurately, showing readiness, loyalty, and responsibility—virtues essential in crisis, especially in wartime.
After receiving Keśava’s order, Dāruka hastens to have the chariot fully prepared and then reports back to Keśava that it is ready.
