29. Thus, his sons being given to practising habits of tranquility, the Lord of the earth ruled the world for eleven Arbuda years, and subdued all that rose against righteousness by the mere twang of the bow-string which he drew with his (two) stout arms, full of that strength by which all his efforts were fruitful without any obstruction; and the king of spacious mind enjoyed the pleasures of life as if his discretion were clouded, or, as if he failed to realise his true self, in the midst of the daily growing delights through respectful attentions of his wife Burhishmati who went forth to meet him in her womanly graces, of hesitating smiles and looks checked by bashfulness and entertaining jokes and conversations.
