Gôvinda III. was succeeded, in A. D. 814 or 815, by a son who reigned for at least sixty-two years.² The records have not yet disclosed his real name; and he is best known, by one of his birudas, as Amôghavarsha, "the fruitful rainer, or he who rains not in vain."³ He had also the special birudas of Nripatunga, "prominent among kings," and Mahârâja-Sarva, "a very Sarva (Siva or Vishnu) among kings;"⁴ and he was also styled Mahârâja-Shanda,⁵ "a very bull among great kings," and Atisayadhavala, "the excessively white one."⁶
