While there, Baladeva heard of the destruction of Shalya. Having made presents to the Brahmanas there, he bewailed, O destroyer of foes, for Shalya, who had been killed by the Pandavas in battle.
तत्रस्थश्चापि शुश्राव हतं शल्यं हलायुधः॥ तत्रापि दत्त्वा दानानि द्विजातिभ्यः परंतपः। शुश्राव शल्यं संग्रामे निहतं पाण्डवैस्तदा॥
