Seeing him coming, those chastisers of foes advanced and bowed down their heads and worshipped him. Then they stood (before him) with hands. Then they all took their seats at the command (of the Rishi) and the Rishi being thus gratified by the son of Pritha living in disguise, cheerfuily spoke to them thus-
तमागतमभिप्रेक्ष्य प्रत्युद्गम्य परंतपाः। प्रणिपत्याभिवाद्यैनं तस्थुः प्राञ्जलयस्तदा॥ समनुज्ञाप्य तान् सर्वानासीनान् मुनिरब्रवीत्। प्रच्छन्नं पूजितः पार्थः प्रीतिपूर्वमिदं वचः॥
