Explicação
This verse turns on the words aparyāpta and paryāpta, which can mean unlimited and limited, or insufficient and sufficient. Read one way, Duryodhana boasts that his army is vast while the Pandava force is small. Read the other way, he admits that his army, under the aged Bhishma, is inadequate, while theirs, under Bhima, is enough. Both readings have long been held, and the ambiguity suits the moment. Duryodhana's words sound confident, yet the whole passage betrays a mind that is not at ease.
