इत्युक्तो धर्मराजेन सर्वं तत्समवर्णयत् ।
यथानुभूतं क्रमशो विना यदुकुलक्षयम् ॥ १२ ॥
iti-thus; uktah-being asked; dharmarajena-by King Yudhisthira; sarvam-all; tat-that; samavarnayat-properly described; yatha-anubhutam-as he experienced; kramasah-one after another; vina-without; yadu-kulaksayam-annihilation of the Yadu dynasty.
Thus being questioned by Maharaja Yudhisthira, Mahatma Vidura gradually described everything that he personally experienced, except news of the annihilation of the Yadu dynasty.
