Vaiśampāyana said: Thereafter Duryodhana commanded his thousands of attendants, “Prepare many pavilions for sport.” Those obedient servants of the Kaurava replied, “So be it,” and set out, intent on arranging the amusements. They went to the lake in the Dvaitavana forest to make ready the pleasure-pavilions as ordered.
