by a son, whose proper name is not given, but who had the \*birudas\* of Akâlavarsha and Subhatuṅga; and of this person we are to d that, though his servants were disloyal, he quickly recovered his paternal kingdom, which had been attacked by the army of Vallabha. He was succeeded by his son, another \*Mahâsâmantâdhipati\* Dhruvarâja, who, like his grandfather of the same name, had the \*birudas\* of Dhârâvarsha and Nirupama, and for whom the record furnishes a date in June, A. D. 866. In connection with him, the record tells us that, though attacked on one side by the host of the powerful Gurjaras,¹ and on another by the hostile Vallabha, and though hampered by seditious kinsmen and the treachery of an unnamed younger brother, he quieted all disturbances; that, unaided, he easily put to flight the very strong army of the Gurjaras, which had been reinforced by his kinsmen; and that he defeated a powerful king called Mihira. In addition to the treacherous unnamed younger brother, spoken of above, the record mentions, at the end, another younger brother of Dhruvarâja, named Gôvindarâja.
