Vaishampayana said : Having heard the words of the intelligent Markandeya. O king, the Pandavas became exceedingly glad along with the wielder of the (bow) Sharnga (Krishna) and with all those foremost of Brahmanas and with all those that were there.
वैशम्पायन उवाच श्रुत्वा तु वचनं तस्य मार्कण्डेयस्यधीमतः॥ संहृष्टाः पाण्डवा राजन् सहिताः शाईधन्वना। विप्रर्षभाच ते सर्वे ये तत्रासन् समागताः॥
