Bṛhad-bhāgavatāmṛta Part 1 Chapter 6 Texts 70-72


tataḥ padmāvatī rājya-
dāna-bhītā vimūḍha-dhīḥ
mahiṣī yadu-rājasya
vṛddhā mātāmahī prabhoḥ

apy uktāśravaṇāt pūrvaṁ

rāma-mātrāvahelitā
sva-bhartū rakṣituṁ rājyaṁ
cāturyāt parihāsa-vat

vyāhāra-paripāṭyānya-

cittatāpādanena tam
yadu-vaṁśyaika-śaraṇaṁ
vidhātuṁ svastham abravīt
