krishna to Yudhistira
After the immediate cause of fear was removed (by the death of Kansa), Jarasandha, his father-in-law, took up arms.

As Jarasandha hath with him

As Jarasandha hath with him
- two friends that are like unto the immortals, and
- in point of strength the foremost of all men endued with might.
- The mighty Jarasandha, being united with them, becomes incapable, I think, of being vanquished by even the three worlds.
- O thou foremost of all intelligent men, this is not our opinion alone but all other kings also are of the same mind.
But, O Bharata,
- hearing people say that Hansa had been killed, Dimvaka, O king, misunderstood that his friend Hansa had been killed , he jumped into the waters of the Yamuna.
- Afterwards when Real Hansa, the subjugator of hostile heroes, heard that Dimvaka, had died, he also went to the Yamuna and jumped into its waters.
