virāṭa uvāca |
ahaṃ khalvapi saṃgrāme śatrūṇāṃ vaśamāgataḥ |
mokṣito bhīmasenena gāvaśca vijitāstathā || 18 ||

"Virata said, 'When brought under the foe's subjection in battle, it was Bhimasena that rescued me. My kine also have been recovered by Arjuna. It is through the might of their arms that we have obtained victory in battle. Such being the case, all of us, with our counsellors, shall propitiate Yudhishthira the son of Kunti. Blessed be thou, with all thy brothers, O bull among the sons of Pandu. If, O king, we have ever said or done anything in ignorance to offend thee, it behoveth thee to forgive us. The son of Pandu is virtuous.'
