Cheerful and impetuous in battle. But, O Sanjaya, you do not speak so of my warriors. You speak of them as slain, pale and routed and of my car-warriors as (always) made carless in the battle?
हृष्टानुदीर्णान् संग्रामे न तथा सूत मामकान्॥ हतांश्चैव विदीर्णाश्च विप्रकीर्णाश्च शंससि। रथिनो विरथांश्चैव कृतान् युद्धेषु मामकान्॥
