• nanda - vrajam — the pastures of Nanda
  Compound: Nanda + Vraja. Reinforces verse 7's framing — the dhāma is identified through Nanda, not through Kṛṣṇa's residency. Gauḍīyas read this as a quiet doctrinal point: Vraja's owner is its eternal owner, regardless of līlā-movement.
• śrīmān — the fortunate one
  Possessing śrī. Uddhava is called śrīmān at the very moment of his Vraja-arrival because contact with the dhāma is itself the conferring of śrī. Gauḍīya tīkā: it is not Uddhava's prior śrī that earns him Vraja, but Vraja that bestows śrī on him.
• channa - yānaḥ — whose passage was concealed
  Compound: channa (hidden) + yāna (going). The chariot enters unseen — a striking detail, because Vraja-residents will not know Uddhava is there until morning (verse 47). The Bhāgavatam stages the messenger's entry as a kind of pradoṣa-mystery.
• khura - reṇubhiḥ — by the dust of (the cows') hooves
  Compound: khura (hoof) + reṇu (dust). The very substance Brahmā prayed for in 10.14.34. Uddhava is sanctified by go-pada-rajas before he sets foot on the ground.
• nimlocati — while (the sun) was setting
  Locative absolute. Sunset is the cows' return-time (godhūli) — the most charged hour of the cowherd day. Gauḍīya kāvya elevates godhūli-līlā as a discrete topos; the Bhāgavatam locates Uddhava's arrival inside it.
• vibhāvasau — the sun
  Locative of vibhāvasu — literally 'one whose wealth is light.' A theologically loaded sun-word: the wealth (vasu) of light withdraws as Uddhava arrives. The next morning's bhagavati udite sūrye in verse 47 will mark the answering daybreak.

The Lord arranges that Uddhava arrive cloaked in the dust kicked up by the homeward cows — the same dust that, in the Tenth Canto's own theology, the gods envy on Kṛṣṇa's lotus feet. Uddhava enters Vraja anointed by go-rajas before he ever meets a single resident.
