Kavi Raj Sliyamal Das— Oti the Prithi Raj Rasa. 
Genealogy of the Chauhdns. 
10. The rare first-born (king) in the noble race o£ the Chanhans 
was Jadawtadwa* [or Jadaw Chandra] who was ever-thriving, suc¬ 
cessful in all his actions, knew the hidden policy of kings, possessed 
armies and other influence, and never bowed to anybody. 
11. Noble-looking, free from blemish, brilliant, tender-bodied like 
a wreath of flowers, wearing garments, white like limpid and pure 
wavelets, bending (modestly) with the weight of (breasts in the form 
of) highf (?) hills, such a one, the goddess SakambaraJ is like Lakshmi 
the spouse of Vishnu. 
12. In Ahikshetrapura, the first ruler was Purnatalla surrounded 
with numerous warriors, like a bed smiling with flower-plants. 
13. From him were descended Jai Raj and Vigrah Raj—Chandra 
and Gopendra—the last was succeeded by Duidabh Raj, then ruled 
Gurvak, Shashi Nrip, and after the latter Guwak and Sachandan; 
(then the throne was occupied in turns by) Vapyai Raj, who ruled over 
the Vindhya mountains, Singh Rao and Vigrah ; then ruled Durlabh, 
Gundii, Vakpati, and lastly his younger brother Virya Ram succeeded. 
14. Then ruled Chand, Sri Singh the foremost among the Ranaks, 
from the latter was descended Dusal, then came his brother Bisal, 
the beloved (lord) of Raj Devi; his son was Prithvi Raj I., the lord of 
Rasalya Devi, to him was born Jaidev, the consort of Saumalla Devi. 
15. Who after killing three Rajas, the first of whom was Yasho 
Raj the Padhingamichal, defeated the chief whose name was Solhan 
Dand in the field of battle ; and as it pleased him best, he kept him in 
irons, and committed him (alive) to a fortress with an entrance resem¬ 
bling the mouth of Yam, 
16. His son was Arno Raj who kept Hari (Vishnu) in his heart,who 
was the seat of virtue, whose vastness or range was aimed at, who was rare 
(great) in depth and generosity, whose depth could be sounded by none. 
The king as well as the ocean were the seats of Hari, but it is 
marvellous that unlike the ocean the former had neither mire, nor was 
capable of being churned, nor deprived of wealth (Lakshmi) ; neither 
the generator of the mine of guilt§ (the Moon), nor was he served by 
double-tongued (serpents) hypocrites. 
This name cannot be properly made out in the transcript, which in this and 
in other places seems full of mistakes.
