Sanskrit text, Unicode transliteration, Word-for-word and English translation of verse 1.7.63:

परितो मुहुर् आलोक्य श्रीमद्-द्वारवतीश्वरम् ।
श्री-यादवेन्द्रम् आत्मानं प्रत्यभिज्ञातवांस् तदा ॥ ६३ ॥

parito muhur ālokya śrīmad-dvāravatīśvaram |
śrī-yādavendram ātmānaṃ pratyabhijñātavāṃs tadā || 63 ||

Again, Śrī Kṛṣṇa looked around everywhere, and thus He saw Himself as the master of Dvārakā and the Supreme King of the Yādavas.
