Said Yudhishthira: "You are all-knowing. You know our hearts as well
as theirs. In expounding matters and in the art of persuasion, there is none better than
you."
Krishna said: "Yes, I know you both. Your mind ever clings to
righteousness and theirs is always steeped in hatred, jealousy and enmity.
I will do all I can to secure the result, which I know is dear to you-a
settlement reached without war even though it may have, but little for you.
The signs are ominous and portend war. Still duty demands that vie
should make the attempt for peace."
