Thereupon in the upper storey of that house constructed by the celestial Architect, Prabhāvati began to make arrangements against Pradyumna's arrival. After the completion of the arrangements, the goose, with Prabhāvati's permission, went away speedily like air for bringing Kāma. Going to Kāma who was living in the guise of an actor that one of sweet smiles said "You will see her to night". And returning speedily she said to Prabhāvati, "O you of expansive eyes, console yourself; Rukshmini's son is coming" (45–48). Thereupon seeing a fragrant garland filled with bees carried for Prabhāvati, the highly powerful and self-controlled hero, Pradyumna, the slayer of his enemies, sat there on assuming the form of a bee. That garland, covered with black-bees, was taken by the maid servants to the inner appartment and kept near Prabhāvati. O gentle king, when gradually evening set in, the other bees fled away. Then having none to follow him the heroic Bhaima chief slowly sat on Prabhāvati's ear (49-53).

Thereupon beholding the highly charming full moon arise there Prabhāvati, a clever speaker, said to the goose, "O friend, my limbs are burning, my mouth is being dried up and my heart is filled with curiosity. What is the name of this disease? The newly-risen full moon of cool-rays is liked by all. It is still creating anxiety in me as if it is not liked by me. Oh fie on the nature of a woman! I have not seen him—I have wanted him after only hearing of him—still my limbs are burning. I am saying so of my own accord lest my love may not come. Alas! If he does not come I will meet the same fate with the silly lily. Alas! Although I am self-controlled still I have been bitten by serpent-like Cupid (54–58). The rays of the moon are by nature cool, delightful and charming. But, wonder, they are scorching my body. The wind, carrying the filaments of various flowers, is cool by nature, still it is scorching my beautiful frame like forest-fire (59–60). I am thinking of being patient, but my weak mind, shattering my resolution, does not allow me to do so. Forsooth, losing control over my mind, I will run mad and be killed, for my heart is trembling and I am looking again and again wildly (61–62)".

Thus while the intelligent Yādavas were waiting there for the proper hour there appeared the rainy season delightful to all creatures (25). The swans, fleet like the mind, used daily to carry the intelligence of the highly powerful princes to Shakra and Keshava. Thus well protected by those Dhārtarashtras the highly powerful Pradyumna used to spend every night with the beautiful Prabhāvati (26–27). The Asuras, possessed by Death, could not perceive that they had been surrounded by the swans and actors in the city of Vajra at the command of Vāsava (28). By and by, well protected by the swans the heroic son of Rukshmini began to spend even the day in Prabhāvati's house (29). O descendant of Kuru, on account of his illusory powers, one half of his body used to appear on the stage—and with the other half he lived with Prabhāvati. The Asuras used to envy the high-souled Yadavas for their prosperity, humility, character, sportiveness, cleverness, simplicity and learning. Their women used to envy the Yādava women for their beauty, luxury, scents, pure words and conduct (30–32).

English

O king, Vajranābha's illustrious brother Sunābha had two beautiful and accomplished daughters—one of them was named Chandravati, and the other Gunavati. They daily used to go to Prabhāvati's house (33–34). One day seeing Prabhāvati engaged in love affairs in her house they asked her about it on account of their confidence in her love for them (35). She said:—"I possess a learning which can soon bring a desired-for husband and gives prosperity. It has such a wonderful power, that whoever, may he be a Dānava or god, is thought of he at once comes losing all control over himself. By the power of this learning I sport with the son of a god. See, by my power, Pradyumna has become my most favourite." Seeing him, endued with beauty and youthfulness, they were filled with wonder (36–38). Afterwards smiling gracefully the beautiful Prabhāvati again addressed to her sisters words suited to the time:—"The gods are always engaged in virtuous acts, ascetic penances and are truthful: on the other hand the great Asuras are haughty, fond of pleasures and untruthful. So the gods are superior, for victory is there where reign virtue, asceticism and truth (39–41). I will instruct you in this learning; you may select two celestial youths as your becoming husbands. By my power you will soon get them" (42).

Prabhavati said:—Formerly pleased with me Durvāsa conferred on me this learning: it gives good luck and always preserves maidenhood (45).

Do you take this learning and you will in no time be united with your loves."

Thereupon, O king, those two beautiful daughters of Sunābha, filled with joy, accepted the learning from the mouth of their sister and practised it. Then they thought of Gada and Shāmva. Covered with illusion by Pradyumna those two heroic Bhaimas entered there with him. Those two heroes, fond of the pious and the slayers of their enemies, espoused them according to Gandharva rites after reciting the _mantras_. Of them Gada married Chandravati and Keshava's son Shāmva Gunavati. Thus awaiting the orders of Sakra and Keshava those leading Yadus lived there happily with Asura girls (46-51).

Vaishampāyana said:—Thereupon after the sun, the eye of the world, had risen for three Muhurttas the deity Hari came there riding on Garuda, the enemy of the serpents [1]. O descendant of Kuru, the king of birds Garuda, coursing more quickly than even the swans, air and the wind, went to Sakra in the etherial region (2). Coming near Vāsava, the lord Krishna duly blew the conch Panchajunya which increased the fear of the Daityas (3). Hearing that sound Pradyumna, the slayer of his enemies, came near His father Keshava who said to him "Speedily kill Vajraalbha" (4). Afterwards he again said to him "Go there on Garuda's back" Saluting the foremost of celestials Indra and Upendra he did so. O emperor Bhārata, riding on Garuda, fleet like the mind Pradyumna approached his great rival Vajranābha (5–6). Seated on Garuda firmly the the heroic Pradyumna, well read in the use of all weapons, struck Vajranābha (7). The highly powerful Vrajranābha was wounded on the breast with a club by the high-souled Krishna's son seated on Garuda. That Daitya hero, sorely mailed by Pradyumna with his club, lost consciousness; and bewildered like one dead he vomitted blood again and again (9). Thereat Krishna's son, irrepressible in battle, told him "Be consoled". Thereupon on regaining his consciousness in a moment the heroic Vajranabha said to Pradyumna:—"Well done! Oh highly powerful Yadava. By your prowess you have become an illustrious enemy of mine. Now is the time for me to strike you in return; wait here firmly (10-11)." Saying this and roaring like a hundred clouds the king of Daityas discharged, with great force, a huge club adorned with bells. (12). O king wounded sorely on his forehead with that club that foremost of Yadus, Pradyumna, vomitted blood and lost his conciousness (13). Seeing it the divine Krishna, the slayer of his enemies, blew his Panchajanya conch as if consoling his son. At the sound of that Panchanjanya bow the highly powerful Pradyumna revived and stood up. O Bhārata, beholding Pradyumna consoled, all the worlds especially Indra and Keshava were greatly delighted (14-15).

Vaishampāyana said:—Thereupon after the sun, the eye of the world, had risen for three Muhurttas the deity Hari came there riding on Garuda, the enemy of the serpents [1]. O descendant of Kuru, the king of birds Garuda, coursing more quickly than even the swans, air and the wind, went to Sakra in the etherial region (2). Coming near Vāsava, the lord Krishna duly blew the conch Panchajunya which increased the fear of the Daityas (3). Hearing that sound Pradyumna, the slayer of his enemies, came near His father Keshava who said to him "Speedily kill Vajraalbha" (4). Afterwards he again said to him "Go there on Garuda's back" Saluting the foremost of celestials Indra and Upendra he did so. O emperor Bhārata, riding on Garuda, fleet like the mind Pradyumna approached his great rival Vajranābha (5–6). Seated on Garuda firmly the the heroic Pradyumna, well read in the use of all weapons, struck Vajranābha (7). The highly powerful Vrajranābha was wounded on the breast with a club by the high-souled Krishna's son seated on Garuda. That Daitya hero, sorely mailed by Pradyumna with his club, lost consciousness; and bewildered like one dead he vomitted blood again and again (9). Thereat Krishna's son, irrepressible in battle, told him "Be consoled". Thereupon on regaining his consciousness in a moment the heroic Vajranabha said to Pradyumna:—"Well done! Oh highly powerful Yadava. By your prowess you have become an illustrious enemy of mine. Now is the time for me to strike you in return; wait here firmly (10-11)." Saying this and roaring like a hundred clouds the king of Daityas discharged, with great force, a huge club adorned with bells. (12). O king wounded sorely on his forehead with that club that foremost of Yadus, Pradyumna, vomitted blood and lost his conciousness (13). Seeing it the divine Krishna, the slayer of his enemies, blew his Panchajanya conch as if consoling his son. At the sound of that Panchanjanya bow the highly powerful Pradyumna revived and stood up. O Bhārata, beholding Pradyumna consoled, all the worlds especially Indra and Keshava were greatly delighted (14-15).

Vaishampāyana said:—Thereupon after the sun, the eye of the world, had risen for three Muhurttas the deity Hari came there riding on Garuda, the enemy of the serpents [1]. O descendant of Kuru, the king of birds Garuda, coursing more quickly than even the swans, air and the wind, went to Sakra in the etherial region (2). Coming near Vāsava, the lord Krishna duly blew the conch Panchajunya which increased the fear of the Daityas (3).

Afterwards he again said to him "Go there on Garuda's back" Saluting the foremost of celestials Indra and Upendra he did so. O emperor Bhārata, riding on Garuda, fleet like the mind Pradyumna approached his great rival Vajranābha (5–6). Seated on Garuda firmly the the heroic Pradyumna, well read in the use of all weapons, struck Vajranābha (7). The highly powerful Vrajranābha was wounded on the breast with a club by the high-souled Krishna's son seated on Garuda. That Daitya hero, sorely mailed by Pradyumna with his club, lost consciousness; and bewildered like one dead he vomitted blood again and again (9). Thereat Krishna's son, irrepressible in battle, told him "Be consoled". Thereupon on regaining his consciousness in a moment the heroic Vajranabha said to Pradyumna:—"Well done! Oh highly powerful Yadava. By your prowess you have become an illustrious enemy of mine. Now is the time for me to strike you in return; wait here firmly (10-11)."

Vaishampāyana said:—Thereupon after the sun, the eye of the world, had risen for three Muhurttas the deity Hari came there riding on Garuda, the enemy of the serpents [1]. O descendant of Kuru, the king of birds Garuda, coursing more quickly than even the swans, air and the wind, went to Sakra in the etherial region (2). Coming near Vāsava, the lord Krishna duly blew the conch Panchajunya which increased the fear of the Daityas (3). Hearing that sound Pradyumna, the slayer of his enemies, came near His father Keshava who said to him "Speedily kill Vajraalbha" (4). Afterwards he again said to him "Go there on Garuda's back" Saluting the foremost of celestials Indra and Upendra he did so. O emperor Bhārata, riding on Garuda, fleet like the mind Pradyumna approached his great rival Vajranābha (5–6). Seated on Garuda firmly the the heroic Pradyumna, well read in the use of all weapons, struck Vajranābha (7). The highly powerful Vrajranābha was wounded on the breast with a club by the high-souled Krishna's son seated on Garuda. That Daitya hero, sorely mailed by Pradyumna with his club, lost consciousness; and bewildered like one dead he vomitted blood again and again (9). Thereat Krishna's son, irrepressible in battle, told him "Be consoled". Thereupon on regaining his consciousness in a moment the heroic Vajranabha said to Pradyumna:—"Well done! Oh highly powerful Yadava. By your prowess you have become an illustrious enemy of mine. Now is the time for me to strike you in return; wait here firmly (10-11)." Saying this and roaring like a hundred clouds the king of Daityas discharged, with great force, a huge club adorned with bells. (12). O king wounded sorely on his forehead with that club that foremost of Yadus, Pradyumna, vomitted blood and lost his conciousness (13). Seeing it the divine Krishna, the slayer of his enemies, blew his Panchajanya conch as if consoling his son. At the sound of that Panchanjanya bow the highly powerful Pradyumna revived and stood up. O Bhārata, beholding Pradyumna consoled, all the worlds especially Indra and Keshava were greatly delighted (14-15).
