Yudhishthira said. This my sacred, victorious and royal car, which gladdens the heart and which brought us here, which is equal to one thousand cars, which is symmetrical in make and covered with tiger's skins, which is furnished with excellent wheels and flag-staff, which is beautiful and adorned with small bells, the clatter of the wheel of which is like the roars of clouds or the ocean and which is drawn by eight noble steeds renowned all over the kingdom, (the steeds) that are white as the moon-beam and from whose hoofs no earthly being can escape, this, O king, is my wealth with which I shall (now) stake with you.
युधिष्ठिर उवाच अयं सहस्रसमितो वैयाघ्रः सुप्रतिष्ठितः। सुचक्रोपस्करः श्रीमान् किङ्किणीजालमण्डितः॥ संहादनो राजरथो य इहास्मानुपावहत्। जैत्रो रथवरः पुण्यो मेघसागरनिःस्वनः।। अष्टौ यं कुररच्छायाः सदश्वा राष्ट्रसम्मताः॥ वहन्ति नैषां मुच्येत पदाद् भूमिमुपस्पृशन्। एतद् राजन् धनं मह्यं तेन दीव्याम्यहं त्वया॥
