Adhyāya 90: Babhruvāhana’s Reception and the Commencement of Yudhiṣṭhira’s Aśvamedha
तस्मिन् विप्रे गते स्वर्ग ससुते सस्नुषे तदा
tasmin vipre gate svargaṃ sasute sasnuṣe tadā

The verse frames a moral transition: after the departure of a righteous brāhmaṇa to heaven, the remaining family members stand at a moment where their subsequent actions will carry ethical consequence, highlighting the dharmic gravity of conduct after an elder’s passing.
The speaker notes the time immediately after a brāhmaṇa has gone to heaven; the mention of the son and daughter-in-law indicates the household context and sets up the next event or decision that unfolds among those left behind.
