Chapter 69: Nârada Muni 's Vision of Krishna in His Household Affairs

(14) The Supreme Lord, the Best of All Subservient to the Dharma, noticing him, immediately rose from S'rî her couch and bowing down with joined palms made him sit on His own seat.

(23) And there he saw Govinda coddling His small children. Then, in another house, he saw Him preparing for a bath.

Chapter 70: Krishna's Routines, Troubles and Nârada Pays Another Visit

(12) Caring as well for the ghee [used in the sacrifices] as the mirror attended He to the cows, the bulls, the twice-born, the gods and the objects of desire, in arranging for gifts to the satisfaction of all societal classes living in the city and the palace and greeted He His ministers answering in full to all their needs.

(39) He who for the individual soul in samsara, not knowing liberation from the trouble that the material body brings, by His âvataras for His pastimes lights His own torch of fame; You, that Lord, I approach for shelter.

Chapter 71: The Lord to the Word of Uddhava Travels to Indraprastha

(29) The bards, the chroniclers, the singers of heaven, the eulogists and jesters with mridangas, conches, kettledrums, vinâs, small drums and gomulka horns, all sang, danced and glorified with hymns the Lotus-eyed one as also did the brahmins.

Chapter 72: Jarâsandha Killed by Bhîma and the Kings Freed

(16) And so went Bhîmasena, Arjuna and Krishna wearing the guises of brahmins all three to Girivaja, my dear, where the son of Brihadratha [Jarâsandha] resided.

(43) Standing with his foot on top of one leg took he with both hands hold of the other and tore he, as a great elephant does with a tree branch, him apart from the anus upward.

Chapter 73: Lord Krishna Blesses the Liberated Kings

(7) As the kings with joined palms with their words praised the Master of the Senses was by the ecstasy of seeing Krishna the weariness of the imprisonment eradicated.
