When the son of Suta was slain in battle, I do not see the end (viz. that any one on my side will escape the slaughter); since he, indeed, O Sanjaya, was the best means of crossing over (this ocean of hostilities) to my sons.
नावशेष प्रपश्यामि सूतपुत्रे हते युधि॥ स हि पारो महानासीत् पुत्राणां मम संजय।
