Vaishampayana said Thus addressed, Kunti's son the highly wise Yudhisthira commanded Sudharman (the priest of the Kauravas), Dhaumya, Sanjaya of the Suta order, Vidura of great wisdom, and Yuyutsu of Kuru's race, and all his servants headed by Indrasena, and all the other Sutas that were with him, saying,—'Cause the funeral rites of the killed, numbering by thousands, to be duly performed, so that so body may die for want of men to take care of them!
वैशम्पायन उवाच एवमुक्तो महाराज कुन्तीपुत्रो युधिष्ठिरः। आदिदेश सुधर्माणं धौम्यं सूतं च संजयम्॥ विदुरं च महाबुद्धिं युयुत्सुं चैव कौरवम्। इन्द्रसेनमुखांश्चैव भृत्यान् सूतांश्च सर्वशः॥ भवन्तः कारयन्त्वेषां प्रेतकार्याण्यशेषतः। यथा चानाथवत् किंचिच्छरीरं न विनश्यति॥
