Meaning to sacrifice with the horse sacrifice in order to be rid of the harm done to his kinsmen, the king, whose treasury was empty, thought of no source but tax and fine. Seeing what he intended, his brothers, urged on by the Unfallen, brought back great wealth left behind in the northern quarter. With the materials so gathered, Yudhisthira son of Dharma, being afraid, worshipped Hari with three horse sacrifices. The Bhagavan, called by the king, having had the brahmanas conduct the sacrifice for him, stayed on some months out of a wish to please his friends.

Then, given leave by the king, by Draupadi and by the kinsmen, he went to Dvaravati, brahmana, with Arjuna, surrounded by the Yadus.
