So endet im Śrī Mahābhārata, innerhalb der Āśvamedhika-Parva und ihres Anugītā-Abschnitts, das neunundachtzigste Kapitel, das vom Abschluss der mit dem Aśvamedha verbundenen Erzählung handelt, in voller Gänze. Denn all dies ist dir mitgeteilt worden, weil es mit geläutertem und aufrichtigem Sinn gegeben wurde.
