31Welcoming with a smiling look such words as these from the women of the city as they spoke them, Hari went on his way. 32He to whom no enemy had been born, apprehensive of others out of affection, sent out an army of four divisions to guard the foe of Madhu. 33Then the son of Sura turned back the Kauravas, who had come a long way and were sick with the parting and firm in their love, and set out for his own city with those dear to him. 34He passed the Kuru-jangalas and the Pancalas, the Surasenas and the people along the Yamuna, Brahmavarta, Kuruksetra, the Matsyas, and then the Sarasvatas; 35and crossing the desert country and the lands beyond the Sauviras and Abhiras, the mighty one came, O Bhargava, to Anarta, his horses by then a little tired.
36At each place along the way the people of that place came forward with offerings for Hari; and at evening he turned to the western quarter, when the sun had gone down.
