18.76 I rejoice again and again Sanjaya speaks
राजन्संस्मृत्य संस्मृत्य संवादमिममद्भुतम्
केशवार्जुनयोः पुण्यं हृष्यामि च मुहुर्मुहुः
rājan sansmṛitya sansmṛitya saṁvādam imam adbhutam
keśhavārjunayoḥ puṇyaṁ hṛiṣhyāmi cha muhur muhuḥ
O king, recalling again and again this wonderful and holy dialogue between Krishna and Arjuna, I rejoice again and again.
Explanation
I rejoice again and again.
Recalling again and again this wonderful and holy dialogue.
The repetition is the point, twice over: he recalls repeatedly and rejoices repeatedly. The Gita's account of what to do with itself afterwards is not analysis but rereading.
