قال سانجيا: «وهذه السيدة الفاتحة اللون، المتلألئة كإكليل زهور التشامباكا (campaka)، معروفة بأنها ابنة جاراسندها (Jarāsandha)، الملك الشهير وسيد ماغدها (Magadha). وهي تُعدّ زوجة سهاديڤا (Sahadeva)، الابن الأصغر المولود من مادري (Mādrī).»

The verse underscores the dharmic importance of correctly recognizing persons through lineage and lawful relationships (wifehood, parentage). In the Ashramavāsika setting, such identification also serves remembrance and accountability—connecting individuals to the moral and political histories of their houses.
Sanjaya is identifying a seated woman by describing her appearance and then stating her family and marital ties: she is the daughter of Jarāsandha, ruler of Magadha, and the wife of Sahadeva, the younger son of Mādrī.
