Translation and purport composed by disciples of Śrīla Prabhupāda


TRANSLATION

But to ascertain the proper husband for my daughter, O chief of the Sātvatas, we previously set a condition to test the prowess of her suitors.


PURPORT

According to Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī, the King's actual purpose in setting up the test was to obtain Śrī Kṛṣṇa as his son-in-law, since only He could subdue the bulls. Without such a test it would have been difficult for Nagnajit to refuse the many apparently qualified princes and kings who came to ask for his daughter's hand in marriage.
