The messenger said: "The food prepared by King Drupada for the wedding guests for the sake of the marriage -- partake of it, having performed all the rites, and let Krishna go there too; there must be no delay. Here are chariots, adorned with golden lotuses, yoked with fine horses, worthy of a lord of the earth -- mounting them, go all of you to the dwelling of the Panchala king."

Here hospitality summons beggar-guests as though they were kings. It is telling that gilded chariots are sent for men who live on alms: Drupada honors his future sons-in-law even before their worth is confirmed. True honor is rendered according to the dignity of the soul, not according to one's present lot. So the scripture shows Drupada's generosity, and destitute wanderers are called for as kings.
