When the time for the return of the highsoul Pandavas comes, who are now passing their days in close disguise in woods you should gauge your own strength in your own kingdom and in those of other kings. Forsooth, the time of the return of the Pandavas is near at hand.
तस्मात् सत्रं प्रविष्टेषु पाण्डवेषु महात्मसु। गूढभावेषु छन्नेषु काले चोदयमागते॥ स्वराष्ट्र परराष्ट्रे च ज्ञातव्यं बलमात्मनः। उदयः पाण्डवानां च प्राप्ते काले न संशयः॥
