Chapter 2: Sudarśana Upākhyāna — Atithi-Dharma and the Conquest of Mṛtyu
Gṛhastha-Vrata
अनेन विधिना सेयं मामर्च्छति शुभानना । अनुरूप यदत्रान्यत् तद् भवान् कर्तुमहति
anena vidhinā seyaṁ mām arcchati śubhānanā | anurūpa yad atrānyat tad bhavān kartum arhati ||
毗湿摩说道：“依此所定之法，这位容颜姣好的女子如今前来侍奉我。至于此处还有什么合乎礼法、你认为应当施行之事，你尽可去做。”

Educational Q&A
The verse emphasizes acting according to vidhi (proper procedure) and anurūpa (situational propriety): once a duty-bound approach has been followed, the next steps should be decided by what is ethically fitting, not by impulse.
Bhishma indicates that a woman described as śubhānanā has approached him in service following an accepted procedure, and he authorizes the addressed person (bhavān) to decide and carry out whatever further action is appropriate in the circumstances.
