sandhyāte - in the evening; calibe prabhu - the Lord will start; nṛpati śunila - the King heard; hastī-upara - upon the backs of elephants; tāmbu-gṛhe - in tents; strī-gaṇe - all the ladies; caḍāila - made get up.

When the King heard that the Lord was leaving that evening, he immediately made arrangements for some elephants with small tents on their backs to be brought there. Then all the ladies of the palace got on the elephants.
