स दवादशाहं जलवायुभक्षः; कुर्वन कषपाहःसु तदाभिषेकम समन्ततॊ ऽगनीन उपदीपयित्वा; तेपे तपॊ धर्मभृतां वरिष्ठः ॥ ३-११८-१७ ॥

तम उग्रम आस्थाय तपश चरन्तं; शुश्राव रामश च जनार्दनश च तौ सर्ववृष्णिप्रवरौ स सैन्यौ; युधिष्ठिरं जग्मतुर आजमीढम ॥ ३-११८-१८ ॥
'While he was engaged in such severe penances, news reached both Balarama and Krishna that the king was undertaking the most austere forms of asceticism.

'Then the king, whose courage remained unshaken by adversity, warmly greeted Rama, Krishna, Samba (Krishna's son), Shini's grandson, and the other Vrishnis.
