Rama the Plowbearer gave Partha a wedding gift, rejoicing, bringing the joy of kinship; that great stream of wealth and jewels, foaming with cloth and blankets, with great elephants like great crocodiles, thick with banners like waterweed, surging like a great river, poured into the white ocean of the Pandavas, filling what was already full, and became a bringer of grief to their foes.

Here even Balarama, so recently angry, gives with the joy of kinship. It is telling that his wrath turned into "the joy of relation": reconciliation turned fury into generosity. Telling too is the image: riches flowed into the Pandavas as a river into the sea — abundance upon abundance. Here it is seen that peace enriches while discord ruins. Thus the scripture shows Balarama's generosity, and the Pandavas' increased might grieves only their foes.
