kathaṃ nidhanamāpannaḥ pitā mama tathāvidhaḥ |
ācakṣadhvaṃ yathāvanme śrotumicchāmi tattvataḥ || 18 ||
"Janamejaya said, 'There hath not been born in our race a king who hath not sought the good of his subjects or been loved by them. Behold especially the conduct of my grandsires ever engaged in great achievements. How did my father, blessed with many virtues, meet with his death? Describe everything to me as it happened. I am desirous of hearing it from you!'
