31. So long as the Surahhi* shall continue to graze in the region 

 of cows, and the waves of the seas agitated by the wind, the sun with

 water of which is pure as the rays of the stars.

An Abstract by Kamalakanta Pundit. 

 Literal Translation. 



The particulars of the Janaka Raja's birth are already detailed in the 

 preceding slokas, extracted from Srimat Bhdgavata, 



From the line of this Janaka sprung many powerful Rajas, from 

 some of these was born Raja Ootpala ; from Ootpala, Aranya 'Rd]di', 

 from Aranya Raja, Adhhuta Krishna Raja ; from Adbhuta Krishna 

 Raja, Vasoodeba Raja ; from Vasoodeba, Srindtha Ghosi ; from 

 Srindtha, Mohepdla ; and from Mohepdla, Vandhooka ; from his wife 

 named Ghrita Devi, was born Raja Purnapdla ; whose younger sister 

 was Ldhinif the restorer. Here also follows the lineage of Vigraha 

 Raja, whom she had been married to, but unfortunately for a short du- 

 ration, when he, ( Vegraha Raja,) departed this life, leaving Lahini o. 

 widow, who from that time took up her abode into the residence of 

 Purnapdla, her brother. The lineage is this. There was a Raja named 

 Kdsiswara Dwijdte, and from his line descended a Raja named Bhabo- 

 gupt, who had also once repaired this very temple of Bhanu (Sun) in 

 the forest of Vadapura, where he had reigned for a while. From him 

 sprung Sambara, a Raja who also ruled the country of Vadari. From 

 Sambara was born Ballabha Raja, who had a son named Chara, and 

 from Chara was born Vara Raja, and from Vara, Vegraha Raja, the 

 husband of Ldhini, It was she who caused the temple of Bhanu, 

 formerly established in the forests of Vada to be repaired, as well as a 

 reservoir of water made therein. 



* An eternal cow, yielding every thing desired.
