(L. 22.) –His son, king Bhima, the son of Kollabhigan da-Vijayadity a, (ruled) for twelve years.
(L. 23.)-(The son), who was like Kumara, that was born to him who was like Mahêsvara, from Lôkamahadevi who was like Umâ, was named king Amma. The palms of his hands and the soles of his feet were marked with the leaves of water-lilies and with chauris and with water-jars and with elephant-goads; he had two arms, (as strong and massive) as iron door bars, which were charming, and which hung down as far as his knees; (and) he had a chest which was (as broad) as a table-land of the king of mountains. Putting Manôja to shame with his beauty, (and) Mahồndra with his power, (and) the sun with his great splendour,
(and) Hara with the destruction of the cities of his foes,-be is resplendent, having his fame acquainted with the distant) regions and the (whole) earth.
(L. 30.) He, the asylam of the universe, Sr 1-Vijayaditya, the supreme king of great kings, the supreme lord, the most worshipful one, the devout worshipper of Brahma, -whose feet, which are like water-lilies, are kissed by the bees which are the jewels set in the diadems of all the hostile kings; who behaves like a beautiful bee at the feet of Ayngalochana''; (and) who is made very proud by having all proud people bowing down before him,-having called together the kutumbís, headed by the ráshtrakúļas, who inhabit the district of Velan anda, thus issues his commands:
(L. 36.) “ There was the Kasyapa gôtra - the source of wise men and excellent poets; famous; the origin of persons worthy to be worshipped; the dwelling-place of many virtuous qualities; the place of very pious people; the abode of religious observances; the most worthy object of all. In it (there was born) he whose fame was celebrated under the name of Viddamayya, -whose body was (made) pure by means of the learning and the six kinds of rites and the observances that are proper for Brühmans; who was acquainted with the Vedas; (and) who knew the (whole) body of the sástras. His son was the learned (and) famous Viddamiya, like to Ambhôjabhava," who was the moon of the ocean of the race of Brahmans; (and) who was a ray of the sun to the white) water-lilies which were learned men: and by means of his devoted lawful wife Anamavvá, he became like Vasishtha who was possessed of (his wife) Arundhati. Their son (was) he who was named Kôramiya, resembling the earth (in steadfastness),-who bore a form, not beheld in any other and never heard of before, which came to him by inheritance, (and) which was of a noble nature, (and) which supported the world. Through affection he was nourished by Our mother, Sri-Lôkamah & dévi, as being the dwelling-place of the ever charming (qualities of) cleverness and politeness. The
13 Bhims was in reality the son of KollabhigandaVijayhditya, who was in the same degree of descent with Yuddhamalla II. In Bhima being here called also the son of Yuddhamalla II., we have another instance of the custom referred to by me in Dynasties of the Kanares
Districts, p. 48, note 1.
15 Siva, as Trinetra. 16 Brahma, as born in the water-lily. 15 Or Anamayya.
