Then, when the Lord Krishna, the son of Devaki, had departed, the Pandavas -- having won a most vast victory, having granted safety to the kings, and their vigor increased still further by that deed, O Bharata -- multiplied the supreme delight of Draupadi, O king. And in that time the king, renowned for his guarding of the kingdom, did according to dharma whatever was fitting and joined with dharma, kama, and artha.
