Nanda and Upananda

The standard of Yudhishthira of great energy, bearing the device of a 
  1. golden moon with 
  2. planets around it, looked very beautiful.
Two large and beautiful kettle-drums, called
  1. Nanda and 
  2. Upananda, were tied to it. Played upon by machinery, these produced excellent music that enhanced the delight of all who heard it.
