tato devāḥ sagandharvāḥ siddhāś ca paramarṣayaḥ | hṛṣṭāḥ sampūjayāmāsuḥ pārtham akliṣṭakāriṇam ||
Then the gods—together with the Gandharvas, the Siddhas, and the supreme seers—delighted at heart, honored and welcomed Pārtha (Arjuna), the doer of great deeds who accomplishes his aims without strain.
