When the other funeral ceremonies were over, the Kauravas, with the direction of their priests, set fire to the bodies on the king and that of Madri which had been besmeared with ghee and decked with ornaments; and they burnt them with the fragrant Sandal woods which was besmeared with Tungapadma and other perfumes.
याजकैरभ्यनुज्ञाते प्रेतकर्मण्यनुष्ठिते। घृतावसिक्तं राजानं सह मान्या स्वलंकृतम्॥ तुङ्गपद्मकमिश्रेण चन्दनेन सुगन्धिना। अन्यैश्च विविधैर्गन्धैर्विधिना समदाहयन्॥
