vaiśaṃpāyana uvāca |
sahadevo'pi gopānāṃ kṛtvā veṣamanuttamam |
bhāṣāṃ caiṣāṃ samāsthāya virāṭamupayādatha || 1 ||
"Vaisampayana said, 'Then clad in a cowherd's dress, and speaking the dialect of cowherds, Sahadeva came to the cowpen of Virata's city. And beholding that bull among men, who was shining in splendour, the king was struck with amazement. And he directed his men to summon Sahadeva. And when the latter came, the king addressed him, saying, 'To whom dost thou belong? And whence dost thou come? And what work dost thou seek? I have never seen thee before. O bull among men, tell me truly about thee.'
