agastyatīrthaṃ ca pavitrapuṇyaṃ; nārītīrthāny atha vīro dadarśa
|
| 5 | tatrārjunasyāgryadhanurdharasya; niśamya tat karma parair asahyam
saṃpūjyamānaḥ paramarṣisaṃghaiḥ; parāṃ mudaṃ pāṇḍusutaḥ sa lebhe
|
| 6 | sa teṣu tīrtheṣv abhiṣiktagātraḥ; kṛṣṇāsahāyaḥ sahito 'nujaiś ca
saṃpūjayan vikramam arjunasya; reme mahīpālapatiḥ pṛthivyām

hṛṣṭaḥ saha bhrātṛbhir arjunasya; saṃkīrtayām āsa gavāṃ pradānam
|
| 8 | sa tāni tīrthāni ca sāgarasya; puṇyāni cānyāni bahūni rājan
krameṇa gacchan paripūrṇakāmaḥ; śūrpārakaṃ puṇyatamaṃ dadarśa
|
| 9 | tatrodadheḥ kaṃ cid atītya deśaṃ; khyātaṃ pṛthivyāṃ vanam āsasāda
taptaṃ surair yatra tapaḥ purastād; iṣṭaṃ tathā puṇyatamair narendraiḥ
|
| 10 | sa tatra tām agryadhanurdharasya; vedīṃ dadarśāyatapīnabāhuḥ
ṛcīkaputrasya tapasvisaṃghaiḥ; samāvṛtāṃ puṇyakṛd arcanīyām
|
| 11 | tato vasūnāṃ vasudhādhipaḥ sa; marudgaṇānāṃ ca tathāśvinoś ca
vaivasvatādityadhaneśvarāṇām; indrasya viṣṇoḥ savitur vibhoś ca

puṇyāni cāpy āyatanāni teṣāṃ; dadarśa rājā sumanoharāṇi
|
| 14 | teṣūpavāsān vividhān upoṣya; dattvā ca ratnāni mahādhanāni
tīrtheṣu sarveṣu pariplutāṅgaḥ; punaḥ sa śūrpārakam ājagāma
|
| 15 | sa tena tīrthena tu sāgarasya; punaḥ prayātaḥ saha sodarīyaiḥ
dvijaiḥ pṛthivyāṃ prathitaṃ mahadbhis; tīrthaṃ prabhāsaṃ samupājagāma

saṃtarpayām āsa tathaiva kṛṣṇā; te cāpi viprāḥ saha lomaśena
|
| 17 | sa dvādaśāhaṃ jalavāyubhakṣaḥ; kurvan kṣapāhaḥsu tadābhiṣekam
samantato 'gnīn upadīpayitvā; tepe tapo dharmabhṛtāṃ variṣṭhaḥ
|
| 18 | tam ugram āsthāya tapaś carantaṃ; śuśrāva rāmaś ca janārdanaś ca
tau sarvavṛṣṇipravarau sasainyau; yudhiṣṭhiraṃ jagmatur ājamīḍham
|
| 19 | te vṛṣṇayaḥ pāṇḍusutān samīkṣya; bhūmau śayānān maladigdhagātrān
anarhatīṃ draupadīṃ cāpi dṛṣṭvā; suduḥkhitāś cukruśur ārtanādam
|

tataḥ sa rāmaṃ ca janārdanaṃ ca; kārṣṇiṃ ca sāmbaṃ ca śineś ca pautram
anyāṃś ca vṛṣṇīn upagamya pūjāṃ; cakre yathādharmam adīnasattvaḥ
|
| 21 | te cāpi sarvān pratipūjya pārthāṃs; taiḥ satkṛtāḥ pāṇḍusutais tathaiva
yudhiṣṭhiraṃ saṃparivārya rājann; upāviśan devagaṇā yathendram
|
| 22 | teṣāṃ sa sarvaṃ caritaṃ pareṣāṃ; vane ca vāsaṃ paramapratītaḥ
astrārtham indrasya gataṃ ca pārthaṃ; kṛṣṇe śaśaṃsāmararājaputram
|
| 23 |
śrutvā tu te tasya vacaḥ pratītās; tāṃś cāpi dṛṣṭvā sukṛśān atīva
netrodbhavaṃ saṃmumucur daśārhā; duḥkhārtijaṃ vāri mahānubhāvāḥ
