Upon becoming aware of this revolt, the prince of Madura was much disturbed, and sent him various orders to appear and do homage. In case of disobedience he would resort to force, and chastise him as a rebel. Tevera paid no heed to these threats; and with an army of sixty thousand men, infantry and cavalry together, took the field against Madura. This Tevara was a huge-limbed and gigantic man, of great strength and great courage. The strongest horse could not bear him farther than two leagues. At one meal he ate as much as twenty ordinary men, and drank much wine. But he never entered on eating or drinking without going through superstitious performances with the wine. Angered at the revolt of Tevara, the prince of Madura sent out an army of eighty thousand combatants under a general, China Tamby Modely (Chinna Tambi Mudeliyar), a man astute, sagacious and valorous. - [Previous: 265.2.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.265.2.6) - [Next: 265.2.8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.265.2.8) - [Up: 265.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.265.2) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.265.2.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.265.2.7) · Pramāṇa
