TRANSLATION

When Satyabhāmā saw her dead father, she was plunged into grief. Lamenting "My father, my father! Oh, I am killed!" she fell unconscious.


PURPORT

According to Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī, Satyabhāmā's anguished feelings and words at the death of her father were prompted by Lord Kṛṣṇa's pastime potency (līlā-śakti), to prepare for the Lord's violent reaction against Śatadhanvā.
