Verse 11

¹So, afraid because of the harm done to his people, and wishing to know all dharma, he went then to Vinasana, where Devavrata had fallen. ²Then all his brothers followed, brahmanas, in chariots drawn by fine horses adorned with gold, and Vyasa and Dhaumya and the rest went as well. ³The Bhagavan too, sage among brahmanas, went in a chariot with Dhananjaya; and among them that king shone like Kubera among his guhyakas. ⁴Seeing Bhisma fallen upon the ground like an immortal dropped out of heaven, the Pandavas with their followers, and with the bearer of the discus, bowed down to him. ⁵Best of the good, all the brahmana sages were there, and the divine sages, and the royal sages too, to see that bull of the Bharatas.

⁶Parvata, Narada, Dhaumya, the revered Badarayana, Brhadasva, Bharadvaja with his pupils, and the son of Renuka; ⁷Vasistha, Indrapramada, Trita, Grtsamada, Asita, Kaksivan, Gautama, Atri, Kausika, and then Sudarsana; ⁸and other sages too, brahmana, spotless ones with Brahmarata at their head, came with their pupils, Kasyapa and Angirasa and the rest. ⁹Recognising those greatly favoured ones gathered there, the best of the Vasus, who knew dharma and understood the divisions of place and time, did them honour. ¹⁰And knowing his power, he honoured Krsna, the lord of the world, seated there, who dwells within the heart and has taken on a body by his maya.

¹¹With eyes blinded by tears of affection he spoke to the sons of Pandu, who sat near him, drawn close by reverence and love.
