________________ 130 SURYA DYNASTY. greatness becoming as light as % straw, suffered the fate of a tree standing on its bank having fallen down on account of its roots being broken. 65, King Rajamalla, who was like the sun on account of his unbearable brightness towards other kings, and who had destroyed the darkness of wickedness with his hands (or rays) ascended with his numerous swift horses mount Chitrakața, the lord of the mountains in the east. 06. King Rajamalla, whose heart was delighted to see that there was no sinful being in the territory acquired through the favor of Pramathapati (Sankara), was himself equally sinless in the family of Sri Karyaditya. He captured Kurnbhameru with the ussistance of his favourites facing the south-east after deicating his enemy named Mudhoduva with his allies. 67. King Rajamalla who was devoted to Sankara, who is sacred and fit to be worshipped, being pleased with the poet named Mahesa, who was as soft as u garland of Malli flowers, granted him the village of Ratnakheta which produced (ratnas) jewels, at the time of the conjunction of the sun and Råhu for preventing a repetition of incarnation on this carth. 68. King Rajamallia deprived Gyåsasakešvaru of his pride on the near the) Chitrakuța, who fought with instruments of capturing, gave blows with ploughs, bewildered (the enemics) with (his) elephants, had numerous and active troops of horses and camels, had many heroes who fought with loud war-cry, and who fought with terrible blows. 69. In that battle, a great hero called Gaür (white) constantly destroyed the army of the Saka; therefore a peak of the Chitrakuta being a portion of the fort bears his name. 70. King Rajamalla, who was wisc, put four statues on the four peaks of this inount of the four warriors called Guüra (the white) ready as it were with their strong arms to put down the hardy and robust warriors of the opposite side. 71. When the great heto Gaür who acquired fine and wide spread glory, reached the sky by being placed on the top of the peak of the high Chitrakutáchala, I believe, he went to bathe himself into the waters of the Sorasarit (Gunga) being desirous of frecing himself from the Sin committed by touching a great quantity of blood shed from the living Sakas, 72. The lord Rajamalla, who was of never-fading beauty, the Indra of the earth, overturned like a pebble, having destroyed his large Pakshas (wings in the case of the mountains and allies in the case of enemy) with his cleaving sword, the mountain-like Jahirala, whose roving bands were like a thorn and who was safe on account of having found refuge in thick forests.
