Draupadi, my father called him himself and gave me to my mother's brother's son, to Krsna, since my mind was already his, along with an army division and my companions. May the touch of his feet be mine birth after birth, while I am whirled about by my works, for that is where the good of the self lies. Queen, I too heard again and again of the birth and the deeds of the Unfallen, sung by Narada, and my mind settled on Mukunda. She who holds a lotus in her hand thought it well over, and chose him, and left the guardians of the worlds. Good woman, my father, who loved his daughter, the one they call Brhatsena, learned what I had in mind and arranged the means for it.

Queen, as at your own choosing a fish was made for the sake of getting Partha, so it was here, only this one was covered from outside and could be seen just in the water.
