Hearing these words of the great Phalguna, the righteous-souled Yudhishthira, the son of Kunti, addressed Vidura and said these words, "Instructed by me, O Kshatri, do you say to the Kuru king that I shall give him as much wealth from my treasury as he wishes to give away for the obsequies of his sons, and of Bhishma and others among his well-wishers and benefactors, let not Bhima be dispirited at this.
इति तस्य वचः श्रुत्वा फाल्गुनस्य महात्मनः। विदुरं प्राह धर्मात्मा कुन्तीपुत्रो युधिष्ठिरः॥ इदं मद्वचनात् क्षत्तः कौरवं ब्रूहि पार्थिवम्। यावदिच्छति पुत्राणां श्राद्धं तावद् ददाम्यहम्॥ भीष्मादीनां च सर्वेषां सुहृदामुपकारिणाम्। मम कोशादिति विभो मा भूद् भीम: सुदुर्मनाः॥
