TRANSLATION

Lord Acyuta’s faithful wives, along with their children, followed the Lord on golden palanquins carried by powerful men. The queens were adorned with fine clothing, ornaments, fragrant oils and flower garlands, and they were surrounded on all sides by soldiers carrying swords and shields in their hands.

PURPORT

According to Śrīdhara Svāmī, the word vāji indicates that some of Lord Kṛṣṇa’s queens were transported by horse-drawn conveyances.
