Vaishampāyana said:—Thus looking at Dwāraka, Krishna, of most excellent eyes, saw his own house consisting of hundreds of palaces. He saw there a million of white jewelled pillars, a gate with jems lustrous like fire and a number of effulgent golden seats placed here and there. For his court a huge palace had been made entirely of gold with crystal pillars. He also saw beautiful and big lakes, with its water full of lotuses and fragrant red lotuses resorted to by maddened peacocks and coels, with golden and jewelled stairs and adorned with various other trees. That house was encircled by Viswakarma with stone walls hundred yards high which were girt with ditches. After the measurement of Indra's palace the celestial Architect had built that house on a plot of land measuring half a _yojana_ on all sides. Seated on Garuda's back she saw that sable-hued palace (1-8). He then blew his conch the sound of which made the hairs of his enemies stand erect. At that sound the ocean was greatly agitated and the sky resounded. Indeed it appeared very wonderful (9). Hearing the sound of Panchajanya conch-shell and seeing Garuda all the members of the Kukura and Andhaka families were freed from sorrow (10). Beholding Keshava effulgent like the sun, with conch-shell, discus, and club in his hands, seated on Garuda, the citizens attained to an excess of joy. Thereupon they began to beat trumpets, blew bugles and set up leonine shouts. Afterwards beholding the slayer of Madhu the Kukuras, Andhakas and other Dāsharhas began to approach him with great delight (11-13). Placing Vasudeva before him and accompanied with the sound of conch-shells and trumpets, the king Ugrasenā repaired to Vāsudeva's palace. Devaki, Rohini and Ahuka's wives began to move about with joy in their own houses. A few moments after, Hari whom serve Indra and other gods, arrived at the appointed house

Vaishampāyana said:—Thereupon having honored Garuda like his friend Vāsudeva took him to his own house. Having saluted Janārddana that sky-ranging bird, with his permission, rose up into the sky. At that time, having agitated completely the ocean, the abode of Makaras, with the wind caused by the flapping of his wings the bird flew towards the eastern sea (1–3). Saying "I will again come at the time of work" Vinatā's son departed. Krishna honored, with jewels acquired by his own prowess, his old father Anakadundubhi, the king Ugrasena, Baladeva, Satyaki Sāndipani, the Brāhmana Gārgya, and other members of the Vrishni, Andhaka and Bhoja races. The ambassadors, adorned with ear-rings and garlands, announced at the crossings and high ways of Dwārakā:—"The enemies of the Brāhnanas have been slain: the slayer of Madhu has returned unscathed from the battle-field and the Vrishnis and Andhakas have acquired victory" (4–8).

O descendant of Bharata, after showing these civilities all the Yadavas, headed by Upendra, sat on celestial thrones set with jewels of every description. Afterwards, commanded by Krishna, Naraka's servants brought there the riches and the assembly-hall which they had brought before.

"After few days had passed in this way, the king Kansa, undertook a great festival in Mathura in honor of the trident-handed deity. In that festival, O king, wrestlers, songsters and clever dancers had assembled there from various countries. In that festival, the highly powerful Kansa had built there a rich arena, by clever and well-trained artizans. Thousands of seats were occupied by citizens and villagers as the sky is crested with luminous bodies (54–57). As the performer of pious deeds ascends the celestial chariot so the Bhoja king Kansa ascended the well-decorated platform of the arena. At the entrance of that arena the powerful Kansa had kept a mad elephant ridden by heroes and covered with weapons. Thinking of Rāma and Krishna the highly powerful Kansa had no sleep even in the night previous, and hearing now of the arrival of those two foremost of men, like unto the sun and moon he became more careful for protecting himself (58–60). Hearing of that most excellent arena those two foremost of men, the heroic Rama and Krishna, the slayers of their enemies, attempted to enter there as a tiger goes to the pasture of cows. And although prevented by the warders they entered there after killing the elephant Kuvalayāpida. Having entered that arena the irrepressible Bala and Krishna first powdered Chanura and Andhra and then killed the wicked son of Ugrasena with his younger brother (61–64). Who else but Yadu's descendant could accomplish such a feat which even the gods could not do (65)? Keshava has brought for you all these riches which Pralhāda, Bali and even Shamvara could not obtain before. He has killed the Daityas Muru and Pānchajana. And coming out of his mountainous fastness Nisunda has been slain with all his kinsmen (66–67). Having killed Bhumi's son Naraka and brought back the beautiful pair of Aditi's ear-rings Keshava attained to great fame from the celestials in their region (68). O ye Yadavas, depending upon the strength of Krishna's arms and shorn of pride, fear, sorrow and other impediments do you celebrate various sacrifices. A great work of the gods has been performed by the intelligent Krishna. May you fare-well. I have come here to communicate to you this glad tidings, O ye chiefs, Vāsava has said that he would with great care procure what ever you would like to have. He is yours and you are his. Know it for certain, that the foremost of gods, the chastiser of Pāka has despatched me here to inform Krishna that the gods have been highly pleased. There lives advancement where reign the goddesses of prosperity and modesty. In the high-souled Vāsudeva all the three exist (69–73)".

Narada said:—Moreover, the nooses made by Mura have been cut, Nisumva and Naraka have been slain and the road to the city of Pragyotish has been freed from all dangers. Even the proud kings of the world have been frightened in battle by this descendant of Shura (Krishna) with the twang of his bow and the sound of his conch-shell Panchajanya. Having vanquished easily the highly powerful Rukshmi well protected by the Decean car-warriors resembling clouds, the foremost of Vrishnis Keshava carried away Rukshmini (1–3). Afterwards Hari, the holder of conch-shell, discus and club, brought Bhoja's daughter into his house in a car effulgent like the sun and producing a rattle like unto the muttering of clouds and married her. In the city of Jāruthi he defeated Ahdriti, Kratha and Shishupala and vanquished Dantavakra and Shatadhanwā with all their soldiers. Worked up with anger the beautiful lord of Shoubha killed Shālwa, grasping firmly a bow, the Yavana Indradyumna and Kasherunām. Having scattered thousands of mountains the lotus-eyed Purusottama struck Dyumutsena with his discus. In the city of Irāvati on the summit of the mount Mahendra there lived two followers of Rāvana Gopati and Tālaketu, who could disappear form view within the twinkling of an eye and were effulgent like sun and fire. The foremost of men, Keshava, the holder of Srānga bow, killed them both, within the twinkling of an eye, the Dānavas Hansa and Dimvaka have been also slain by Krishna with their followers. Vārānashi (Benares) has been burnt down by the high souled Keshava and the king with his followers has been slain (4-11). Having killed Maya in battle with knotty arrows Krishna, of wonderful deeds, has released the son of Indrasena (12). The highly powerful Varuna, with all the acquatic animals, has been defeated in battle by Krishna repairing to Lohitakuta (under water) (13). Having gone to Indra's palace, he, although prevented by the highly powerful celestials, disregarding their king, carried away the Pārijāta tree (14). The intelligent Janārddana has slain the kings of Pandya, Poundrya, Kalinga, Matsa and Banga (15). Having killed hundreds of highly powerful kings he married his beautiful queen Gāndhāri. But the Lord Madhusudana has crowned the foremost of Bharatas, Arjuna, the holder of Gāndiva bow who used to play before Kunti, with success (16–17). This foremost of men has defeated, in battle, Drona, Drauni, Karna, Bhishma, Suyodhana and other warriors. For pleasing Vabhru the powerful Hari, the holder of conch-shell, discus and club, carried away by force the daughter of the king of Suveera (18-19). When Venudāri trampled over the entire earth with his horses, cars and elephants Purusottama defeated him with great care (20). Acquiring, by his ascetic penances, energy, strength and power in his pristine dwarfish form Mādhava stole away from Bali the three worlds. Even when he was attacked in the city of Prāgyotish by the Dānavas with thunderbolts, clubs and swords Death could not near him (20-22). Bali's son, the highly powerful, energetic and rich Bāna has been defeated by Krishna with all his followers. The highly powerful Janārddana has killed Peetha, Paithika and Asitomā the courtiers of the long-armed Kansa (23–24). The highly illustrious Mādhava, the foremost of men, has killed the Daityas Jambha, Airāvata and Virupa, assuming the semblance of a man (25). Having defeated in water the highly powerful Nāga king Kālya, the lotus-eyed (Krishna) has despatched him to the sea (26). Having vanquished Vivaswān's son Yama, Hari, the foremost of men, has restored to life the dead son of Sāndipani (27). O Emperor Janamejaya, in this way, this high-souled one chastises those wicked souls who injure the Brāhmanas and the gods. Having slain Bhumi's son Naraka he has brought the pair of ear-rings and given them to the mother of gods for pleasing the holder of thunder-bolt (28–29). The highly illustrious Lord Vishnu, the master of all the worlds, is a terror to the Daityas and declares fearlessness to the celestials (30). Having established virtue amongst the mortals by performing various sacrifices and accomplished the great work of the gods he will return to his own region. Then the highly illustrious Krishna will make the ocean devour the cities Bhogavati, a favourite resort of the Rishis, and Dwārakā (31–33). This city of Dwārakā, filled with various jewels and sacrificial grounds, will enter, with its gardens, into the abode (sea) of Varuna (33). The ocean, conversant with the desire of Krishna, the holder of Shrānga bow, will inundate this city of Dwārakā constructed by Vāsudeva and resembling the residence of the sun. There is none amongst the gods, Asuras, and men and none will be, except the slayer of Madhu, who will be able to live

Narada said:—Moreover, the nooses made by Mura have been cut, Nisumva and Naraka have been slain and the road to the city of Pragyotish has been freed from all dangers. Even the proud kings of the world have been frightened in battle by this descendant of Shura (Krishna) with the twang of his bow and the sound of his conch-shell Panchajanya. Having vanquished easily the highly powerful Rukshmi well protected by the Decean car-warriors resembling clouds, the foremost of Vrishnis Keshava carried away Rukshmini (1–3). Afterwards Hari, the holder of conch-shell, discus and club, brought Bhoja's daughter into his house in a car effulgent like the sun and producing a rattle like unto the muttering of clouds and married her. In the city of Jāruthi he defeated Ahdriti, Kratha and Shishupala and vanquished Dantavakra and Shatadhanwā with all their soldiers. Worked up with anger the beautiful lord of Shoubha killed Shālwa, grasping firmly a bow, the Yavana Indradyumna and Kasherunām. Having scattered thousands of mountains the lotus-eyed Purusottama struck Dyumutsena with his discus. In the city of Irāvati on the summit of the mount Mahendra there lived two followers of Rāvana Gopati and Tālaketu, who could disappear form view within the twinkling of an eye and were effulgent like sun and fire. The foremost of men, Keshava, the holder of Srānga bow, killed them both, within the twinkling of an eye, the Dānavas Hansa and Dimvaka have been also slain by Krishna with their followers. Vārānashi (Benares) has been burnt down by the high souled Keshava and the king with his followers has been slain (4-11). Having killed Maya in battle with knotty arrows Krishna, of wonderful deeds, has released the son of Indrasena (12). The highly powerful Varuna, with all the acquatic animals, has been defeated in battle by Krishna repairing to Lohitakuta (under water) (13). Having gone to Indra's palace, he, although prevented by the highly powerful celestials, disregarding their king, carried away the Pārijāta tree (14). The intelligent Janārddana has slain the kings of Pandya, Poundrya, Kalinga, Matsa and Banga (15). Having killed hundreds of highly powerful kings he married his beautiful queen Gāndhāri. But the Lord Madhusudana has crowned the foremost of Bharatas, Arjuna, the holder of Gāndiva bow who used to play before Kunti, with success (16–17). This foremost of men has defeated, in battle, Drona, Drauni, Karna, Bhishma, Suyodhana and other warriors. For pleasing Vabhru the powerful Hari, the holder of conch-shell, discus and club, carried away by force the daughter of the king of Suveera (18-19). When Venudāri trampled over the entire earth with his horses, cars and elephants Purusottama defeated him with great care (20). Acquiring, by his ascetic penances, energy, strength and power in his pristine dwarfish form Mādhava stole away from Bali the three worlds. Even when he was attacked in the city of Prāgyotish by the Dānavas with thunderbolts, clubs and swords Death could not near him (20-22). Bali's son, the highly powerful, energetic and rich Bāna has been defeated by Krishna with all his followers. The highly powerful Janārddana has killed Peetha, Paithika and Asitomā the courtiers of the long-armed Kansa (23–24). The highly illustrious Mādhava, the foremost of men, has killed the Daityas Jambha, Airāvata and Virupa, assuming the semblance of a man (25). Having defeated in water the highly powerful Nāga king Kālya, the lotus-eyed (Krishna) has despatched him to the sea (26). Having vanquished Vivaswān's son Yama, Hari, the foremost of men, has restored to life the dead son of Sāndipani (27). O Emperor Janamejaya, in this way, this high-souled one chastises those wicked souls who injure the Brāhmanas and the gods. Having slain Bhumi's son Naraka he has brought the pair of ear-rings and given them to the mother of gods for pleasing the holder of thunder-bolt (28–29). The highly illustrious Lord Vishnu, the master of all the worlds, is a terror to the Daityas and declares fearlessness to the celestials (30). Having established virtue amongst the mortals by performing various sacrifices and accomplished the great work of the gods he will return to his own region. Then the highly illustrious Krishna will make the ocean devour the cities Bhogavati, a favourite resort of the Rishis, and Dwārakā (31–33). This city of Dwārakā, filled with various jewels and sacrificial grounds, will enter, with its gardens, into the abode (sea) of Varuna (33).

Narada said:—Moreover, the nooses made by Mura have been cut, Nisumva and Naraka have been slain and the road to the city of Pragyotish has been freed from all dangers. Even the proud kings of the world have been frightened in battle by this descendant of Shura (Krishna) with the twang of his bow and the sound of his conch-shell Panchajanya. Having vanquished easily the highly powerful Rukshmi well protected by the Decean car-warriors resembling clouds, the foremost of Vrishnis Keshava carried away Rukshmini (1–3).

In the city of Jāruthi he defeated Ahdriti, Kratha and Shishupala and vanquished Dantavakra and Shatadhanwā with all their soldiers. Worked up with anger the beautiful lord of Shoubha killed Shālwa, grasping firmly a bow, the Yavana Indradyumna and Kasherunām. Having scattered thousands of mountains the lotus-eyed Purusottama struck Dyumutsena with his discus. In the city of Irāvati on the summit of the mount Mahendra there lived two followers of Rāvana Gopati and Tālaketu, who could disappear form view within the twinkling of an eye and were effulgent like sun and fire.

For pleasing Vabhru the powerful Hari, the holder of conch-shell, discus and club, carried away by force the daughter of the king of Suveera (18-19). When Venudāri trampled over the entire earth with his horses, cars and elephants Purusottama defeated him with great care (20). Acquiring, by his ascetic penances, energy, strength and power in his pristine dwarfish form Mādhava stole away from Bali the three worlds.

When Venudāri trampled over the entire earth with his horses, cars and elephants Purusottama defeated him with great care (20). Acquiring, by his ascetic penances, energy, strength and power in his pristine dwarfish form Mādhava stole away from Bali the three worlds.

The highly illustrious Lord Vishnu, the master of all the worlds, is a terror to the Daityas and declares fearlessness to the celestials (30). Having established virtue amongst the mortals by performing various sacrifices and accomplished the great work of the gods he will return to his own region. Then the highly illustrious Krishna will make the ocean devour the cities Bhogavati, a favourite resort of the Rishis, and Dwārakā (31–33). This city of Dwārakā, filled with various jewels and sacrificial grounds, will enter, with its gardens, into the abode (sea) of Varuna (33). The ocean, conversant with the desire of Krishna, the holder of Shrānga bow, will inundate this city of Dwārakā constructed by Vāsudeva and resembling the residence of the sun. There is none amongst the gods, Asuras, and men and none will be, except the slayer of Madhu, who will be able to live
