आगच्छन्तु विनेष्यामो दर्पम् एषां शितैः शरैः ॥
पुरैकेन हि भीष्मेण विजिताः सर्वपार्थिवाः ॥
मृते पितर्य् अभिक्रुद्धो रथेनैकेन भारत ॥

But you could not have foreseen the inevitable fall then. The land of the Kurus, including the region called Jangala, is, O king, your ancestral kingdom. Yet with the help of these heroes you conquered the whole earth. Having conquered it by the strength of their arms, the sons of Pritha delivered this vast empire to you.

Key themes: the Pandavas, Dhritarashtra, Bhishma. Dharma is revealed here through speech, the choice of embassy, faithfulness to promises, and the responsibility of kings for the consequences of their decisions.
