Then Vyasa, ascertaining the state of things by his spiritual vision, arrived there. The highly intelligent Rishi, gifted with great energy, arrived (at the palace), addressed Pritha of large eyes, as also Uttara herself, saying, Let this grief be given up! O famous lady, a son gifted with great energy will be born to you, through the power of Vasudeva and at my word. That son will rule the Earth after the Pandavas.
आजगाम ततो व्यासो ज्ञात्वा दिव्येन चक्षुषा। समागम्याब्रवीद् धीमान् पृथां पृथुललोचनाम्॥ उत्तरां च महातेजाः शोकः संत्यज्यतामयम्। भविष्यति महातेजाः पुत्रस्तव यशस्विनि॥ प्रभावाद् वासुदेवस्य मम व्याहरणादपि। पाण्डवानामयं चान्ते पालयिष्यति मेदिनीम्॥
