bhismo drono ’mbika-putro

 gandhari sa-suta tatha

sa-darah pandavah kunti

 sañjayo vidurah krpah

 

kuntibhojo viratas ca

 bhismako nagnajin mahan

purujid drupadah salyo

 dhrstaketuh sa kasi-rat

 

damaghoso visalakso

 maithilo madra-kekayau

yudhamanyuh susarma ca

 sa-suta bahlikadayah

 

rajano ye ca rajendra

 yudhisthiram anuvratah

sri-niketam vapuh saureh

 sa-strikam viksya vismitah

 

Translation: 

 

All the royalty present, including Bhisma, Drona, Dhrtarastra, Gandhari and her sons, the Pandavas and their wives, Kunti, Sañjaya, Vidura, Krpacarya, Kuntibhoja, Virata, Bhismaka, the great Nagnajit, Purujit, Drupada, Salya, Dhrstaketu, Kasiraja, Damaghosa, Visalaksa, Maithila, Madra, Kekaya, Yudhamanyu, Susarma, Bahlika with his associates and their sons, and the many other kings subservient to Maharaja Yudhisthira — all of them, O best of kings, were simply amazed to see the transcendental form of Lord Krsna, the abode of all opulence and beauty, standing before them with His consorts.

 

Purport: 

 

According to Srila Sridhara Svami, all these kings were now followers of Yudhisthira because he had subjugated each of them to earn the privilege of performing the Rajasuya sacrifice. The Vedic injunctions state that a ksatriya who wants to execute the Rajasuya for elevation to heaven must first send out a “victory horse” to roam freely; any other king whose territory this horse enters must either voluntarily submit or face the ksatriya or his representatives in battle.
