三阇耶说：随后，他们执弓疾驰直奔彼处——萨底耶迦、毗摩塞那、德鲁波陀之子德里什塔丢姆那、毗罗吒、德鲁波陀、罗刹迦托特迦遮与阿毗曼纽；这七位英雄怒火如狂，手持奇妙之弓，直冲而来。由他们的冲击，战斗喧腾轰然，令人毛骨悚然。众斯林阇耶合为一体，从四面八方猛击毗湿摩。

The passage highlights the tension between righteous duty and the destructive force of anger: warriors act within kṣatriya-dharma (organized, united assault in war), yet the text also marks the psychological cost—krodha (wrath) driving action and the battle becoming ‘lomaharṣaṇa,’ a reminder of war’s terrifying moral weight.
A group of seven prominent Pāṇḍava-aligned heroes—Sātyaki, Bhīma, Dhṛṣṭadyumna, Virāṭa, Drupada, Ghaṭotkaca, and Abhimanyu—charge together and engage Bhīṣma. Their coordinated attack produces a fierce, tumultuous clash as they attempt to overwhelm the Kuru commander from all sides.
