Indeed, it does not leave me. Indeed, it seems as though I see it with my own eye. This conviction is not a matter of inference. All created beings show great affection for their offspring and do, as far as they are able, what is pleasing and beneficial to them. This can commonly be seen also in the case of benefactors. The good always wish to repay the good done to them and to do what is most pleasing to those who have helped them. Remembering what was done for him at Khandava, Agni will, without doubt, come to Arjuna's aid in this dreadful clash of the Kurus and the Pandavas.

This passage (5.60.6-10) develops the central theme of the Udyoga-parva: the effort toward peace is already underway against the backdrop of an inevitable war. Key themes: dharma. Here dharma reveals itself through speech, the choice of envoys, fidelity to promises, and the kings' responsibility for the consequences of their decisions.
