सहदेवस्य गोसंख्य-तन्तिपाल-रूपेण विराट-समागमः | Sahadeva’s Audience with Virāṭa as Cattle-Enumerator
Tantipāla
कृष्णां च भार्या पाण्डूनां कुरूणामेकसुन्दरीम् । पहले मैं श्रीकृष्णकी प्यारी रानी सत्यभामा तथा कुरुकुलकी एकमात्र सुन्दरी पाण्डवोंकी धर्मपत्नी द्रौपदीकी सेवामें रह चुकी हूँ
kṛṣṇāṃ ca bhāryā pāṇḍūnāṃ kurūṇām ekasundarīm |
毗湿摩波耶那说道：“还有黑公主克里希纳（德劳帕蒂）——般度五子的正法之妻，亦是俱卢一族独一无二的绝色。”此句凸显德劳帕蒂在俱卢家中被承认的身份与尊严，含蓄强调婚姻之法的正当与她应受的敬礼与荣誉。

The verse reinforces dharmic recognition of Draupadī’s rightful status—she is explicitly named as the Pāṇḍavas’ lawful wife and honored as a distinguished woman of the Kuru line, implying that social and ethical order depends on acknowledging such legitimacy and dignity.
Vaiśampāyana, as narrator, identifies and characterizes Draupadī (Kṛṣṇā) in a formal, lineage-based way—linking her to the Pāṇḍavas and the Kurus—preparing the listener to understand her role and standing within the unfolding events of the Virāṭa episode.
