In the Harivamsha Purana, the king of that city, having won the battle, married the daughter of Kapila, named Kapila, according to the proper rites. ||26|| He was greatly pleased with his brother-in-law, Anshuman, and while living there, he had a son named Kapila, born to Kapila. ||27|| One day, the same Neelakantha, who had previously abducted Nila-Yasha, came to Vedasampura in the form of a gandha-hasti (a fragrant elephant). When Vasudeva mounted him to bind him, he carried him up into the sky. Seeing this, Vasudeva struck him hard with his fists, causing him to lose his gandha-hasti form and become Neelakantha again, out of grief. ||28|| Vasudeva slowly fell into the water of the pond and, without any worry, left the forest and went to the city of Shalaguha. ||29|| There, he received the daughter named Padmavati, who was skilled in archery. From there, he went to Jaipur and, defeating the king there, he also obtained his daughter. ||30|| From there, he went with his brother-in-law, Anshuman, to the great city of Bhadrailpur. There, at that time, King Paundra ruled. He had a beautiful daughter named Charuhaasini. Due to the effect of divine medicine, she always maintained the appearance of a young woman. Vasudeva came to know about this and married this extremely beautiful woman. ||31-32|| After some time, he had a son named Paundra, born to her, who was worthy of Lakshmi. One night, while Vasudeva was sleeping, his enemy, Angarak, abducted him in the form of a swan. ||33|| When he escaped, he slowly fell from the sky into the Ganges River. After crossing it, when he reached the shore, he saw the city of Ilavadhan at dawn. ||34|| There, he sat on a fine seat provided by a merchant in a shop. As soon as he sat down, the shop filled with wealth in an instant. ||35|| Understanding this to be the effect of Vasudeva, the merchant took him to his home and, there, gave him his daughter, Ratnavati, who was blessed with wealth, for the fortunate young Vasudeva. ||36|| Vasudeva lived there, enjoying continuous divine pleasures with Ratnavati. Later, he went to the great city of Mahapur to see the Indra-Dhwaja (Indra's flag). ||37|| There, he saw many large palaces outside the city and asked a man who had built them and for what purpose. ||38|| The man said that King Somadatta had built them for his
