Angry Chandpradyot attacked Kampilyapur. Jaivarma was also a great warrior. He defeated the army of Avanti and made Chandpradyot a prisoner. The victor said
One evening when Chandpradyot was walking in the gallery he saw a beautiful young girl sitting in the balcony of the adjacent palace. He was stunned by her beauty
According to the norms of war you are my prisoner. However, don't worry. As you are also a friend you
will be treated well here....
Oh! what a beauty. She is divinely charming. She is fit to be my
