INTRODUCTION.
Brahma-ksatra race, and a fierco wind to raise the fire of the Brahmakşatra race, was born.
Where the array of the enemy was broken like that of a herd of deer before a pursuing clephant, in front of the victorious elephant of liis lori, the king Jugalekarîra (the one hero in the world), when at the order of king Indra® he raised his arm to conquer Vajjala-lova, of terrible power, like the ocean disturbed at the end of age, and who was the younger brother of Pâtâla-malla.
He who was thus praised by his lord in the fight with the king of Nolambas : "Which king arnong my foes will not fall as food to the black snake of my arrow when yon sitting always in the front of the bravest hicrocs--an clephant sy whose tusks, resembling a thunderbolt, the rock of the temples of the elephants of the enemy tre split, and a goal to the wild animals--the recory--are present ?"
Who fiercely roared thus in the fight with king Raņa-simba, " () king Jaya lekavira! By your prowess I can conquer in a inoment (an eneniy), even if he be Råvaņa, his city, Lanka, the citarlel, Trikûta, and the noat, the briny ocean."
To whom the celestial damsels bestowed the blessing-" We were thirsted in many battles of this hero by our eagerness to embrace his neck, but now we have been satiated with the water of the edge of his sword. () victor of Raņa-ra...:2--12:! live to the end of age.”
Who, formerly frustrated the desire of king Chaladankn-ganga, who wished to snatch by power of arms the fortune of the empire of the Gangas, and who satisfied the desire of the Rákşasas, who were cager to drink blood, by holding the blood of his brave enemies in skulls of licroes resembling cups made of jewels.
