Shloka 4
Ritual Acclamation at Hastināpura and Karṇa’s Vow Concerning Arjuna (राजकीय स्तुति-प्रसङ्गः कर्णप्रतिज्ञा च)
अचिन्त्य शरवर्ष तु गन्धर्वास्तस्य तं रथम् । दुर्योधनं जिघांसन्त: समन््तात् पर्यवारयन्,परंतु गन्धवॉने उस बाणवर्षाकी कुछ भी परवाह नहीं की। उन्होंने दुर्योधनको मार डालनेकी इच्छासे उसके रथको चारों ओरसे घेर लिया
acintyaśaravarṣaṃ tu gandharvāstasya taṃ ratham | duryodhanaṃ jighāṃsantaḥ samantāt paryavārayan ||
毗湿摩波耶那说：纵有不可思议的箭雨倾注而下，乾闼婆却毫不在意。为求诛杀杜尤陀那，他们从四面八方围住了他的战车。

The verse highlights how arrogance and hostile intent can lead to immediate danger: even a fierce defense (a rain of arrows) may fail when one is morally and strategically overmatched, and when opponents act with unified resolve.
During the Gandharva conflict in the forest, the Gandharvas ignore the heavy arrow-fire and close in on Duryodhana’s chariot from all sides, aiming to kill him by isolating and overwhelming his position.
