WORD BY WORD
TRANSLATION
 | Not only did Lord Kṛṣṇa grant Sudāmā these benedictions, but He also awarded him strength, long life, fame, beauty and ever-increasing prosperity for his family. Then Kṛṣṇa and His elder brother took Their leave.

PURPORT
| | We can see a clear difference between Lord Kṛṣṇa’s dealings with the nasty washerman and His dealings with the devoted florist Sudāmā. The Lord is as hard as a thunderbolt for those who defy Him and as soft as a rose for those who surrender to Him. Therefore we should all sincerely surrender to Lord Kṛṣṇa, since that is clearly in our self-interest.
Thus end the purports of Hṛdayānanda, the humble servant of His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupāda to the Tenth Canto, Forty-first Chapter, of the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, entitled “Kṛṣṇa and Balarāma Enter Mathurā.”
