अनुवाद
It is the duty of a friend, when he himself is prosperous, to see to the fulfillment of his friends' desires. The prosperity that I possess, O brahmin, belongs to the younger brother of Vasava, to Vishnu. I have already spoken with him on your behalf, and he was glad to grant my wish. Come, let us go together. I shall carry you comfortably to the far shore of the ocean, or to the farthest edge of the earth. Come, O Galava, do not delay.'

The passage 5.107.21 develops the central theme of the Udyoga-parva: the effort for peace is already unfolding against the backdrop of an inevitable war. Here dharma is disclosed through speech, the choice of an embassy, faithfulness to one's promises, and the responsibility of kings for the consequences of their decisions.
