## The Sixty-Seventh Chapter
551. Both of them asked, "What is your command for us?" In response, the Muni said, "My work will be done after a few days, and you both should know it well and do it with respect." Saying this, he opened the letter and showed it to them. || 326-328 ||
After this, the Devas, with much wealth, placed the Pritikar on the Vimana and quickly brought him to the mountain called Dharanibhushan, near the well-established city. It is right, for what does the rise of merit not do? Hearing of the Pritikar's arrival, the king, his relatives, and the citizens of the city came to meet him with great joy and their respective glories. The Devas entrusted the Pritikar Kumar to them and then went to their own abode. || 329-331 ||
Entering the city, the Pritikar, with appropriate jewels, worshipped the king. The king, in turn, honored him with a suitable place and respect, satisfying him. || 332 ||
Then, on another day, the Pritikar Kumar's elder mother, Priyamitra, was going to adorn her daughter-in-law with a collection of jeweled ornaments for the occasion of her son's wedding. To see her, the mute girl herself came to the road and, seeing the collection of ornaments, indicated to everyone with her fingers that this collection of ornaments was hers. Then, the girl stood there, stopping Priyamitra who was seated in the chariot. In response, Priyamitra, seated in the chariot, made everyone understand that this girl was mad. || 333-336 ||
Then, those who knew about mantras, tantras, and other methods, used them properly and, after examining her, clearly declared that she was neither mad nor possessed by a ghost. || 337 ||
Hearing this, the Pritikar Kumar sent a secret letter to the girl, saying, "O Kumari! Do not fear at all. I will be present there with the king." Seeing the letter and believing it, the girl went to the king with great joy. The king, wanting to know the story of her ornaments, called the Dharma-Adhikaris and appointed them. || 338-340 ||
The king seated the Vasundhara girl in the enclosure nearby and asked the Kumar Pritikar, "Do you know anything about her?" || 341 ||
In response, the Kumar told him what he knew and then explained to the king that he did not know the rest.
