भूरिश्रवसः गर्हा, प्रायोपवेशः, सात्यकिकृतशिरच्छेदः
Bhūriśravas’s Censure, Prāyopaveśa, and Sātyaki’s Beheading
भारद्वाजं त्रिभिरबणर्दु:सहं नवभि: शरै: । विकर्ण पञज्चविंशत्या चित्रसेनं च सप्तभि:,उन्होंने द्रोणाचार्यको तीन, दुःसहको नौ, विकर्णको पचीस, चित्रसेनको सात, दुर्मीषणको बारह, विविंशतिको आठ, सत्यव्रतको नौ तथा विजयको दस बाणोंसे घायल किया

bhāradvājaṃ tribhir bāṇair duḥsahaṃ navabhiḥ śaraiḥ |
vikarṇaṃ pañcaviṃśatyā citrasenaṃ ca saptabhiḥ |
Sañjaya said: In the thick of battle, he struck Bhāradvāja (Droṇa) with three arrows, Duḥsaha with nine shafts, Vikarṇa with twenty-five, and Citrasena with seven. The narration underscores the relentless, methodical violence of war—where prowess is measured in precise blows, even as the moral weight of harming revered elders and kinsmen hangs over the field.
