Sanskrit text, Unicode transliteration, Word-for-word and English translation of verse 1.5.132:

तत� तत्र गत्व� भवताशु मादृशा� सन्देशम् एत� � निवेदनीयः �
अद्यात्यगाद् आगमनस्� वेला स्�-नाथम� आदाय सभां सनाथ� � १३� �

tat tatra gatvā bhavatāśu mādṛśāṃ sandeśam eta� sa nivedanīya� |
adyātyagād āgamanasya velā sva-nātham ādāya sabhā� sanāthaya || 132 ||

Therefore you should go to the inner palace compound of 󲹲 and receive 岹śԲ of Śrī Uddhava. Also make this request for us: Today the time for 󲹲’s arrival in the assembly has long passed, thus Śrī Uddhava should quickly bring the Lord to the assembly hall and again secure it with our Lord.

Commentary: پ-岹śī-ṭīk with Bhāvānuvāda

(By Śrīla Sanātana Gosvāmī himself including a deep purport of that commentary)

Therefore, only by the mercy of Śrī Uddhava will people like us become happy. With this sentiment, King Ugrasena uses the words beginning with tat tatra. Śrī Uddhava, who is so fortunate, should quickly go the palace of 󲹲 and present this message, “Today the time for 󲹲’s arrival in the assembly has elapsed. Therefore, he should quickly bring his master, the Lord of the , Śrī ṛṣṇa, to the ܻ󲹰 assembly hall and secure it by the presence of our Lord. Without His 岹śԲ we are waiting for Him like helpless citizens.�

Therefore, you are more fortunate than us, because you are able to approach the Lord independently.

Thus ends Chapter Five entitled Priya—The Beloved Devotees� with the پ-岹śī-ṭīk (屹Գܱ岹) of Śrī Bṛhad 岵峾ṛt
