Having released Susharma, the Pandavas, then enemies slain, endowed with the strength of arms, observant of vows, and modest, passed that night happily in the midst of the battle-field. Then Virata honoured, with wealth and respect, those mighty car-warriors, the of Kunti, who were gifted with superhuman prowess.
विसृज्य तु सुशर्माणं पाण्डवास्ते हतद्विषः। स्वबाहुबलसम्पन्ना ह्रीनिषेवा यतव्रताः॥ संग्रामशिरसो मध्ये तां रात्रिं सुखिनोऽवसन्। ततो विराटः कौन्तेयानतिमानुषविक्रमान्। अर्चयामास वित्तेन मानेन च महारथान्॥
