Phālguna took all kinds of divine horses and much wealth, O king, and gave them to Dharmaputra.

Bhīmasena, O king, having conquered the eastern direction by force, brought the kings under control and gave wealth to the Pāṇḍava.

Nakula likewise went to the western direction to collect tribute; Sahadeva, having conquered all the rulers in the southern direction.
मां सन्दिदेश राजेन्द्र करार्थमिह सत्कृतः। पार्थानां चरितं तुभ्यं सङ्क्षेपात्समुदाहृतम्
I was sent, O king, to collect tribute here, being honored; thus, I have briefly recounted to you the deeds of the Pārthas.
तमवेक्ष्य महाराज धर्मराजं युधिष्ठिरम्। पावनं राजसूयं च भगवन्तं हरिं प्रभुम्। एतानवेक्ष्य धर्मज्ञ करं दातुमिहार्हसि
O great king, seeing the righteous Yudhishthira, the purifying Rajasuya sacrifice, and the blessed Lord Hari himself, you, knower of righteousness, ought to offer tribute here.
तेन तद्भाषितं श्रुत्वा राक्षसेन्द्रो बिभीषणः। शासनं प्रतिजग्राह धर्मात्मा राक्षसैः सह
Hearing these words, the king of the Rakshasas, Vibhishana, who was devoted to righteousness, accepted the command together with the Rakshasas.

That wise lord considered it all to be Krishna's doing, and then he gave various splendid blankets and coverlets.

All those jewels were brought by the night-stalkers, eighty-eight thousand in number, red-eyed and giving them equally.

Having taken all the jewels, Ghatotkacha set out, after bowing with joined palms to King Vibhishana.
प्रदक्षिणं परीत्यैव निर्जगाम घटोत्कचः। ततो रत्नान्युपादाय हैडिम्बो राक्षसैः सह
After circling him to the right, Ghatotkacha departed; then, taking the jewels, the son of Hidimba left with the Rakshasas.
जगाम तूर्णं लङ्कायाः सहदेवपदं प्रति। आसेदुः पाण्डवं सर्वे लङ्घयित्वा महोदधिम्
He quickly went from Lanka toward Sahadeva; all of them crossed the great ocean and reached the Pandava.
सहदेवो ददर्शाथ रत्नाहारान्निशाचरान्। आगतान्भीमसङ्काशान्हैडिम्बं च तथा नृप
Sahadeva saw the jewel-bearers, the night-stalkers, who had arrived and resembled Bhima, and also the son of Hidimba, O king.
द्रमिला नैऋतान्दृष्ट्वा दुद्रुवुस्ते भयार्दिताः। भैमसेनिस्ततो गत्वा मार्देयं प्राञ्जलिः स्थितः
Seeing the Dravidas and the Rakshasas, they fled, terrified; then Bhimasena's son approached the son of Madri and stood with joined palms.
प्रीतिमानभवद्दृष्ट्वा रत्नौधं तं च पाण्डवः। तं परिष्वज्य पाणिभ्यां दृष्ट्वा तान्प्रीतिमानभूत्
The Pandava was pleased to see that heap of jewels; embracing him with his hands, he was gladdened on seeing them.
विसृज्य द्रविडान्सर्वान्गमनायोपचक्रमे। न्यवर्तम ततो धीमान्सहदेवो नराधिपः
Dismissing all the Dravidas, he prepared to depart; then the wise king Sahadeva turned back.
एवं विजित्य तरसा सान्त्वेन विजयेन च। करदान्पार्थिवान्कृत्वा प्रत्यागच्छदरिन्दमः
Thus, having conquered with force, conciliation, and victory, he made the kings pay tribute and the subduer of enemies returned.
रत्नसालमुपादाय ययौ सहनिशाचरः। इन्द्रप्रस्थं विवेशाथ कम्पयन्निव मेदिनीम्
Taking the hall of jewels, the night-wanderer departed; he entered Indraprastha, as if shaking the earth.
दृष्ट्वा युधिष्ठिरं राजन्सहदेवः कृताञ्जलिः। प्रह्वोऽभिवाद्य तस्थौ स पूजितश्चापि तेन वै
Seeing Yudhishthira, Sahadeva, with joined palms, bowed low and stood before him, honored by the king.
लङ्काप्राप्तान्धनौघांश्च दृष्ट्वा तान्दुर्लभान्बहून्। प्रीतिमानभवद्राजा विस्मयं परमं ययौ
Beholding the wealth brought from Lanka, so many rare treasures, the king was delighted and filled with utmost wonder.
धर्मराजाय तत्सर्वं निवेद्य भरतर्षभ। कोटीसहस्रमधिकं हिरण्यस्य महात्मने
Reporting all this to Dharmaraja, O best of Bharatas, he presented to the great-souled one more than a crore thousand of gold.
विविधानि च रत्नानि गोजाविमहिषांस्तथा। कृतकर्मा सुखं राजन्नुवास जनमेजय
Various jewels, cows, sheep, and buffaloes as well; having accomplished his task, the king, O Janamejaya, lived happily.
नकुलस्य तु वक्ष्यामि कर्माणि विजयं तथा। वासुदेवजितामाशां यथाऽसावजयत्प्रभुः
Now I shall speak of Nakula's deeds and his victories, and how he conquered the western regions won by Vasudeva.
निर्याय खाण्डवप्रस्थात्प्रतीचीमभितो दिशम्। उद्दिश्य मतिमान्प्रायान्महत्या सेनया सह
