दिष्ट्या च कुशली वीर: सात्यकि: सत्यविक्रम: । दिष्ट्या शृणोमि गर्जन्तौ वासुदेवधनंजयौ,“यह भी आनन्दकी बात है कि सत्यपराक्रमी वीर सात्यकि सकुशल हैं। मैं सौभाग्यवश इस समय भगवान् श्रीकृष्ण और अर्जुनकी गर्जना सुन रहा हूँ
diṣṭyā ca kuśalī vīraḥ sātyakiḥ satyavikramaḥ | diṣṭyā śṛṇomi garjantau vāsudeva-dhanañjayau ||
