Then the previously mentioned god came and, with great wealth, arranged the auspicious marriage of Sulochana. ||32|| Jayakumar, beloved by all, also sent away all his good helpers, including Meghaprabha, Suketu, and others, with gifts. ||33||
Aakampana, the head of the Nath dynasty, a very wise man, consulted with his son-in-law Jayakumar and, having gathered the best jewels from his house as gifts, sent a messenger named Sumukha to the Chakravarti, saying, "You know all the current news. Do what will please the Chakravarti." ||34-35||
The messenger quickly went and first announced his arrival. Then, seeing the Chakravarti, he prostrated himself on the ground, bowed, and, with folded hands, presented the gifts he had brought, saying, "O God, Aakampana, the king, is your follower. He bows and, out of fear, requests your favor. Please listen to him." ||36-37||
He said, "I had a daughter named Sulochana, a most excellent girl. I gave her to Jayakumar, whose wealth and beauty you yourself have increased, through the process of a Swayamvara." ||38||
Kumar Arkakirti also came to that Swayamvara and first accepted everything. He stood there, pleased, along with the Vidyaadhara kings. ||39||
Then, just as a wicked planet, staying with a good planet, makes it wicked, so too did some wicked person, by force, unjustly anger them. ||40||
You already know everything that happened there, because even an ordinary king, who has spies as his eyes, knows everything. What can I say, you are a knower of the future. ||41||
The Kumar is still a boy, he has no fault. We, who are careless, are the ones who are at fault. ||42||
