Numerous costly vessels were dug out and placed in wooden chests, etc.; there were 60,000 camels, 120,000 horses, and 100,000 elephants, (description). Once more worshipping Śiva, they set out for Hāstinapura with the permission of Vyāsa, and placing Dhaumya in the van, marched a goyuta (four miles, PCR.) every day (XIV, 65). Meanwhile, Kṛṣṇa with Pradyumna, etc. (θ), came to see Draupadī, etc. (ι), and was received by Dhṛtarāṣṭra, etc. (κ). Uttarā gave birth to Parikṣit, who was born without life, afflicted with the Brāhma weapon; Kuntī, etc. (λ), lamented, and Kuntī asked Kṛṣṇa, who came with Yuyudhāna, to revive him and rescue Uttarā, etc. (μ), reminding him that Abhimanyu had said to Uttarā that her son would learn the art of weapons, etc., by the Vṛṣṇis and Andhakas; Kṛṣṇa comforted her (XIV, 66). Then Subhadrā lamented (ν) (XIV, 67). Kṛṣṇa entered the lying-in room (description; with articles destructive of Rā.); Uttarā lamented (ξ) (XIV, 68), and so did Kuntī, etc. Kṛṣṇa touched water and withdrew the Brāhma weapon, and "as Kamsa and Keçin have rightly been slain by me, etc." (tena satyena), he revived the child (XIV, 69). Parikṣit illumined the lying-in room with his energy; Rā. fled or were destroyed; a voice in the sky applauded Kṛṣṇa; the Brāhma weapon returned to Brahmán; at the command of Kṛṣṇa the brahmans were made to utter benedictions;
