Vaishampayana: All my sons and grandsons, save Duryodhana, shall go out to meet him in their richly adorned chariots. And thousands of graceful, finely attired dancing girls shall go on foot to meet the illustrious Keshava. And the beautiful maidens who go forth from the city to receive Janardana shall go unclothed. Let all the citizens, with their wives and children, gaze upon the illustrious slayer of Madhu with the same reverence and devotion with which they gaze upon the morning sun. Let the awnings all around, by my command, be hung with garlands and banners, and let the road by which Keshava will come be well watered and cleared of dust.

The passage 5.86.16-20 develops the central theme of the Udyoga-parva: the effort toward peace unfolds against the backdrop of an already inevitable war. Key themes: Krishna, Duryodhana, Dhritarashtra, Bhishma, dharma. Here dharma reveals itself through speech, the choice of embassy, faithfulness to promises, and the kings' responsibility for the consequences of their decisions.
