śrī-śukaḥ uvāca - Śukadeva Gosvāmī said; saḥ - he (Śrutadeva); ittham - in this manner; prabhunā - by his Lord; ādiṣṭaḥ - instructed; saha - accompanying; kṛṣṇān - Lord Kṛṣṇa; dvija - the brāhmaṇas; uttamān - most exalted; ārādhya - by worshiping; eka-ātma - single-minded; bhavena - with devotion; maithilaḥ - the King of Mithilā; ca - also; āpa - attained; sat - transcendental; gatim - the ultimate destination.

Śrī Śuka said: So instructed by his Lord, with single-minded devotion Śrutadeva worshiped Śrī Kṛṣṇa and the topmost brāhmaṇas accompanying Him, and King Bahulāśva did the same. Thus both Śrutadeva and the King attained the ultimate transcendental destination.
