Shloka 37
अर्जुनस्य द्रोणिप्रतिघातः कर्णोपसर्पणं च
Arjuna Checks Droṇaputra; Karṇa Advances
अथान्यद् धनुरादाय नकुल: क्रोधमूर्च्छित: । सुषेणं नवभिर्बाणैर्वारियामास संयुगे,तब क्रोधसे अचेत-से होकर नकुलने दूसरा धनुष हाथमें लिया और सुषेणको नौ बाण मारकर उसे युद्धस्थलमें आगे बढ़नेसे रोक दिया
athānyad dhanur ādāya nakulaḥ krodha-mūrcchitaḥ | suṣeṇaṁ navabhir bāṇair vāriyāmāsa saṁyuge ||
三阇耶说道：随后，那俱罗怒潮翻涌，另取一弓，在鏖战之中以九支箭击中苏舍那，遏止了他的推进之势。

Educational Q&A
Even when anger rises in conflict, the episode highlights a tactical and ethically relevant restraint: force is applied to stop an adversary’s advance and protect one’s side, not as uncontrolled cruelty. It reflects the battlefield ideal of purposeful action rather than blind rage.
Sañjaya reports that Nakula, enraged, takes up a different bow and shoots Suṣeṇa with nine arrows, thereby halting or impeding Suṣeṇa’s forward movement in the fight.
