reme kṛṣṇam anuvrataḥ
Kṛṣṇa had Yudhiṣṭhira perform three horse sacrifices. Yudhiṣṭhira, surrendered to Kṛṣṇa, protecting the earth along with his brothers, ruled over the kingdom.
Reme means “he ruled.”

kāmān siṣeve dvārvatyām
asaktaḥ sāṅkhyam āsthitaḥ
Bhagavān, acting like the soul of the universe, following the path of Vedic and popular rules, fixed in discrimination, and unattached to all material objects, enjoyed in Dvārakā.
This verse describes the fifth and sixth qualities of Bhagavān: jñāna and vairāgya. Though he is Bhagavān he acted like the soul of the universe. Without being attached, he enjoyed objects which gave happiness presented by Indra and others which were not forbidden by Vedic or popular rules. Asaktaḥ indicated vairāgya and sāṅkhyam indicates jñānam.

reme kṣaṇadayā datta-
kṣaṇa-strī-kṣaṇa-sauhṛdaḥ
By affectionate, smiling glances, sweet words, impeccable actions and beautiful form, Kṛṣṇa gave pleasure to the devotees on earth and the devatās, and particularly to the Yādavas. And showing greatest affection for the queens by his conjugal acts at suitable times in the evening, he derived the greatest pleasure.
This verse explains that though the Lord is not attracted to the actions of māyā-śakti, he is attached to the actions of the cit-śakti. By sweetness of four elements—glances, words, actions and form the Lord gave pleasure to the devotees on earth (imaṁ lokam) and on Svarga (amum) and especially with the Yadus. But among the Yadus, he enjoyed especially with the women. This shows greater and greater attachment. Showing affection through a festival (kṣana-sauhṛdaḥ) of conjugal actions for these women at suitable opportunities (datta-kṣaṇa) during the night (kṣaṇadayā), he enjoyed. This is because these queens were actually composed of his cit-śakti, arising from his svarūpa. This can be understood from the conversation between Śiva and Pārvatī in the Skanda Purāṇa, Prabhāsa-khaṇḍa, in which the sixteen thousand queens are described with ten sons each:
haṁsa eva mataḥ kṛṣṇaḥ paramātmā janārddanaḥ
tasyaitāḥ śaktayo devī ṣoḍaśaiva prakīrttitāḥ
candrarūpī mataḥ kṛṣṇaḥ kalārūpās tu tāḥ smṛtāḥ
Kṛṣṇa is known as Haṁsa, paramātmā and Janardana. O Pārvatī! His sixteen śaktis are well known. He is like the moon and the śaktis are like the phases of the moon.
This will be described in detail in the Tenth Canto.
