Explanation

Now the vision turns to the battlefield, and the sentence carries into the next verse. Arjuna sees the sons of Dhritarashtra, the Kaurava princes, with the allied kings; Bhishma, his grandsire; Drona, his teacher; and Karna, called the son of a charioteer because he was raised by one, though he was in truth Arjuna's elder brother, a fact Arjuna does not yet know. Warriors of Arjuna's own side are there too. These are the very people whose deaths he dreaded at the start of the dialogue. The vision now shows him what awaits them.
