EMPEROR VIKRAMADITYA
Matribhatt saw that Vikram was genuinely crying for his mother's death. He placed his hand on Vikram's shoulder and said

A gem was lying before Vikram.
Vikram picked up the gem and threw it away. He bunched his biceps and said
Vikram understood everything,

Friend! These arms
have the power to bring the wealth of heavens on the earth.
Friend! You are, indeed, very brave. One day you are sure
to ascend to the throne of Avanti.
