Text 2.91.47
यानि माल्यानि देवेषु यानि चैत्ररथे वने।
प्रयागे तान्यदृश्यन्त भरद्वाजस्य तेजसा॥
yāni mālyāni deveṣu yāni caitrarathe vane
prayāge tāny adṛśyanta bharadvājasya tejasā
yāni mālyāni = the flowers; deveṣu = that are found among the devas; yāni = and the flowers; caitrarathe vane = that are found in the forest of Caitraratha; prayāge = in Prayāga; tāni adṛśyanta = were seen; bharadvājasya = of Bharadvāja; tejasā = by the power.
By the power of Bharadvāja, the flowers that are found among the devas and the flowers that are found in the forest of Caitraratha were seen in Prayāga.
“The flowers found among the devas” were found in the devas’ gardens such as the Nandana-kānana. They were now found in the trees in the forest of Bharadvāja’s āśrama in Prayāga.
The soldiers danced [and enjoyed themselves] when those who were called [by the sage] were engaged in the service of Bharata. That is noted from the next verse.
