Verse 3

¹Then, when Uddhava, great among the Lord's own, had gone out to the forest, what did the Bhagavan, who brings beings into being, do in Dvaravati? ²When his own line had been struck by the brahmins' curse, how did that bull of the Yadavas give up the body that was dearest to all eyes? ³Where women's eyes, once fixed, could not draw themselves back; which, once it has entered the ear, does not leave it, for it clings to the very selves of the good; whose beauty makes speech take delight in itself, so what then of the pride of poets; and which, seen upon the chariot in the Conqueror's battle, they came to be like.
