Sañjaya berkata: Lalu Duryodhana berhadapan langsung dengan Nakula. Keduanya, menyala oleh amarah dan ketidaksabaran, memasuki pertempuran—masing-masing menyongsong yang lain dengan murka dan harga diri yang terluka.

The verse highlights how anger (krodha) and resentful intolerance (amarṣa) drive people into destructive confrontation. Ethically, it points to the erosion of self-control in war, where wounded pride and rage replace discernment and restraint.
Sañjaya reports that Duryodhana and Nakula come face-to-face and begin fighting. The emphasis is on their emotional state—both are described as angry and resentful—signaling an intense duel within the larger battlefield.
