इन्द्रस्य पाण्डवैः समागमः
Indra’s Meeting with the Pāṇḍavas
अपराद्धमिवात्मानं मनन््यमाना महारथा: । तस्थु: प्राउजलय: सर्वे परिवार्य धनेश्वरम्,धर्मज्ञ धर्मपुत्र युधिष्ठि, नकुल और सहदेव--ये महारथी महामना पाण्डव भगवान् कुबेरको प्रणाम करके अपनेको अपराधी-सा मानते हुए उन्हें सब ओरसे घेरकर हाथ जोड़े खड़े रहे
aparāddham ivātmānaṃ manyamānā mahārathāḥ | tasthuḥ prāñjalayaḥ sarve parivārya dhaneśvaram ||
毗湿摩波耶那说道：那些大车战士自忖如同犯了过失一般，皆合掌而立。他们从四面环侍财富之主（俱毗罗），以恭敬的克制安然伫立——这是在神圣权威之前的伦理谦卑，也默然承认：接近权势，当以法（达摩）为准，并自省其心。
