Sanskrit Original
सहस्रमृषयो यस्य नित्यमासन् सभासदः। तपःश्रुतोपसम्पन्नाः सर्वकामैरुपस्थिताः॥ अष्टाशीतिसहस्राणि स्नातका गृहमेधिनः। त्रिंशद्दासीक एकैको यान् बिभर्ति युधिष्ठिरः॥ अप्रतिग्राहिणां चैव यतीनामूर्ध्वरेतसाम्। दश चापि सहस्राणि सोऽयमास्ते नरेश्वरः॥
That Yudhishthira, who had a number of sages versed in the Vedas, gifted with ascetic merit, and having all their wishes complied with, as his daily courtiers, and who maintained eighty-eight thousands of wedded snatakas, to each of whom there were assigned maids thirty in number, as well as ten thousand yatis abstaining from accepting any thing in shape of gift and having their vital seed totally drawn up, that lord of men lives in such a plight.
