11.26 And there are our own Arjuna speaks
अमी च त्वां धृतराष्ट्रस्य पुत्राः सर्वे सहैवावनिपालसङ्घैः
भीष्मो द्रोणः सूतपुत्रस्तथाऽसौ सहास्मदीयैरपि योधमुख्यैः
amī cha tvāṁ dhṛitarāśhtrasya putrāḥ
sarve sahaivāvani-pāla-saṅghaiḥ
bhīṣhmo droṇaḥ sūta-putras tathāsau
sahāsmadīyair api yodha-mukhyaiḥ
vaktrāṇi te tvaramāṇā viśhanti
danṣhṭrā-karālāni bhayānakāni
kechid vilagnā daśhanāntareṣhu
sandṛiśhyante chūrṇitair uttamāṅgaiḥ
And there the sons of Dhritarashtra, all of them, with the hosts of kings, and Bhishma and Drona and Karna too, and the chief warriors of our own side,
Explanation
And there are our own.
Dhritarashtra's sons, the hosts of kings, Bhishma, Drona, Karna — and the chief warriors of our own side.
That last clause is the sentence the chapter has been building to. The vision is no longer cosmic. He is watching people he knows, on both sides, in the mouths.
