Translation
Vaiśampāyana dit : Il apprit le Veda et la science des armes auprès de Bharadvāja. Inattaquable et ferme dans le combat véridique, il défiait sans cesse Droṇa et le très puissant Bhīṣma—signe de l’assurance disciplinée du guerrier et de l’idéal éthique qui veut qu’on affronte même les plus grands adversaires sans ruse ni recul.
