Entry into the Yakṣa-Lake Episode
नारदजीने कहा--राजन्! आपकी पुत्री सावित्रीके विवाहमें किसी प्रकारकी विघ्न- बाधा न आवे। अच्छा, अब मैं चलता हूँ। आप सब लोगोंका कल्याण हो ।। मार्कण्डेय उवाच एवमुकक््त्वा समुत्पत्य नारदस्त्रिदिवं गत: । राजापि दुहितु: सज्जं वैवाहिकमकारयत्,मार्कण्डेयजी कहते हैं--युधिष्ठिर! ऐसा कहकर नारदजी उठे और स्वर्गलोकमें चले गये। इधर राजा भी अपनी पुत्रीके विवाहकी तैयारी कराने लगे
Mārkaṇḍeya uvāca: evam uktvā samutpatya Nāradas tridivaṃ gataḥ | rājāpi duhituḥ sajjaṃ vaivāhikam akārayat ||
Mārkaṇḍeya disse: “Tendo falado assim, Nārada ergueu-se e partiu para Tridiva, o mundo celeste. E o rei, por sua vez, mandou pôr em ordem todos os preparativos do casamento de sua filha.”

After giving his message, the sage Nārada rises and departs to heaven. Meanwhile, the king begins and organizes the wedding preparations for his daughter, setting the stage for the ensuing Savitrī narrative.
