Seeing her fallen down, Bhimasena of great strength addressed king Yudhishthira the just saying, 'O scorcher of enemies, this princess never did any sinful deed. Tell us what the cause is for which Krishna has fallen down on the Earth.'
तां प्रपतितां दृष्ट्वा भीमसेनो महाबलः। उवाच धर्मराजानं याज्ञसेनीमवेक्ष्य ह॥ नाधर्मश्चरितः कश्चिद् राजपुत्र्या परंतप। कारणं किं नु तद् ब्रूहि यत् कृष्णा पतिता भुवि॥
