三阇耶说道：当日轮行至正午，尤提施提罗王凝目注视舒罗多优斯，遂催动骑兵向其冲去。战阵喧嚣之中，奉持正法的君王不避其责；随着时辰推移、厮杀愈烈，他毅然择定一敌，亲自迎战。

Educational Q&A
The verse highlights k 63atriya-dharma in practice: a king who bears responsibility does not act impulsively but chooses his engagement deliberately, even as the battle reaches its most intense phase (midday). Ethical leadership here is shown as steadiness and purposeful action under pressure.
At midday, Yudhi 63 hir e1 notices rut01yu 63a on the battlefield and orders his cavalry to advance toward him, signaling the start of a direct confrontation.
