Shloka 2
दश राजन् महावीर्या भीम॑ प्राच्छादयन् शरै: । संजय कहते हैं--राजन! दुःशासनके मारे जानेपर युद्धसे कभी पीठ न दिखानेवाले और महान् क्रोधरूपी विषसे भरे हुए आपके दस महारथी महापराक्रमी वीर पुत्रोंने आकर भीमसेनको अपने बाणोंद्वारा आच्छादित कर दिया ।।

Sanjaya dijo: Oh rey, tras la caída de Duḥśāsana, diez de tus poderosos guerreros—que jamás daban la espalda a la batalla y estaban llenos del “veneno” de la ira—avanzaron y cubrieron a Bhīma con una lluvia de flechas.

The verse highlights how attachment and anger—especially after a loved one’s death—can drive warriors into uncompromising violence. It implicitly warns that rage, even when framed as valor, can eclipse discernment and deepen the cycle of retaliation.
Sañjaya reports to Dhṛtarāṣṭra that ten powerful Kaurava fighters surge forward and overwhelm Bhīma by raining arrows upon him, intensifying the battle after the killing of Duḥśāsana.
