My preceptor, viz., the Island-born Krishna heard what Narada said. Receiving it from the celestial Rishis, O best of kings, my preceptor gave it to me in exactly the same way in which he had got it from the celestial Rishi. I shall now recount it to you, O king, in the same way as it has been received from Naradas. Listen, therefore, to me.
गुरुणा च मयाप्येष कथितो नृपसत्तम। यथा तत् कथितं तत्र नारदेन तथा शृणु॥
