Having completed the water-rites and recitations, and having offered into the consecrated fire while duly adorned, Mādhava then stood in reverent attendance upon the rising Sun.

They informed Kṛṣṇa that Dhṛtarāṣṭra had entered the assembly, and that the Kurus—led by Bhīṣma—together with all the kings and earthly rulers, were present.

“Govinda, they entreat you, as the immortals in heaven entreat Śakra.” Hearing this, Govinda assented, addressing them with exceedingly gentle, conciliatory speech.

Then, when the Sun shone clear, Janārdana—subduer of foes—gave the brāhmaṇas gold, garments, and also cows and horses.
