जनस्य सम्प्रहृष्टस्य नलं दृष्टवा तथा55गतम् । राजा नलने उस पूजाको विधिपूर्वक स्वीकार करके अपनी ओरसे भी श्वशुरका सेवा- सत्कार किया। तदनन्तर विदर्भनगरमें राजा नलको इस प्रकार आया देख हर्षोल्लासमें भरी हुई जनताका महान् आनन्दजनित कोलाहल होने लगा
janasya samprahṛṣṭasya nalaṃ dṛṣṭvā tathāgatam |
লোকসকলে নলৰাজাক এইদৰে আহি উপস্থিত হোৱা দেখি আনন্দত উল্লসিত হ’ল; বিদর্ভ নগৰত তেতিয়া মহা আনন্দজাত কোলাহল উঠিল। নলে তেওঁক দিয়া পূজা বিধিপূৰ্বক গ্ৰহণ কৰি, নিজৰ ফালৰ পৰা ধৰ্মানুসাৰে শ্বশুৰকো যথোচিত সেৱা-সত্কাৰে সন্মান জনালে।

Educational Q&A
The passage highlights dharma expressed as reciprocal honor: when one receives proper respect, one should respond with service and hospitality—especially within family relations such as toward a father-in-law—thereby sustaining social and royal propriety.
Nala arrives at Vidarbha; the citizens rejoice loudly on seeing him. He accepts the ceremonial reception and then himself honors and serves his father-in-law with due respect, reflecting the etiquette expected of a righteous king.
