The Prem sagur
Caturbhujamisra, active 17th century
Krishna (Hindu deity)
Having narrated thus much of the history, Shree Shookdeo Jee said,--O
great king! on the marriage taking place, Shree Krishnù Chund, having
restored Banasoor’s confidence, seated him upon the royal throne; and,
accompanied by his grandson and grand-daughter, took leave, and
sounding the large kettle-drum, went thence, with all the descendants
of Judoo, to the city of Dwarka. On hearing of their arrival all the
inhabitants of Dwarka went outside of the city, and escorted Krishnù
in musical procession; at that time the inhabitants of the city sang
songs of rejoicing, and indulged in festivities in the markets, roads,
cross-roads, sheds and houses; and in the royal palace Shree Rookmunee
and all the women sang songs of congratulation, and observed all the
ceremonies usual on festive occasions; the gods, seated in their
chariots, and raining down flowers from the sky, raised cries of
victory; and joy was universally diffused throughout the city, both
inside each house and outside. Bulram, the abode of happiness, and
Shree Krishnù Chund, the root of joy, having then allowed all the
descendants of Judoo to take leave, went to live at their ease and
happily at the royal palace, taking Unroodrù and Ookha with them; the
wives of Krishnù were delighted at beholding Ookha; when she was
brought into the palace, her mother-in-law gave her a blessing, and
clasped her into her bosom; and being highly pleased at seeing her,
adorned her with ornaments.
CHAPTER LXV.
Shree Shookdeo Jee said,--O great king! Raja Nurug, of the family of
Ishwak, was very intelligent, liberal, religious and brave; he made
innumerable presents of cows; it would be as easy to count the grains
of sand of the Ganges, the drops of rain in the month of Bhador, and
the stars of the sky, as to reckon the number of cows Raja Nurug gave
away; although he was so wise and so very liberal a Raja, he was, for
a slight transgression, changed into a lizard, and dwelt in a dry
well, and Shree Krishnù Chund Jee released him.
