Yudhiṣṭhira said: “O Mādhava, by your noble birth, by your own excellence, by your friendship, by the reverence due to you as a guide, by your goodwill, by your valor, and by your high lineage—act in a manner consistent with truth and these virtues. Let these qualities become the very means by which you show compassion and protection toward us.”
