युधिष्ठिरेण दाशार्ह तच् चापि विदितं तव ॥
यथोक्तः संजयश् चैव तच् च सर्वं श्रुतं त्वया ॥

तच् चापि नाकरोद् वाक्यं श्रुत्वा कृष्ण सुयोधनः ॥
युधिष्ठिरस्य दाशार्ह ह्रीमतः संधिम् इच्छतः ॥
अप्रदानेन राज्यस्य यदि कृष्ण सुयोधनः ॥

O Keshava, on different matters different conclusions arise. Yet success, O chastiser of foes, is achieved when a person does what ought to be done in the given situation. When a matter has been settled one way in one case, that resolution becomes unfit once the circumstance changes.
