v2.c24.s3.2

∗ According to Samin in *Ind. Antiq.*, p. 61. *TALS.* 109*a* says that on 20th March his camp was at Sarāi Kola, 3 *kos* from Mathura. *Koila* is 6 miles south of Mathura and opposite Mahavan. *DC.* records that on 18th March the news reached Delhi that Abdali had marched from Mathura to Vrindāvan. Raj. i. 63 says that from Mathura he detached a force to sack Gokul-Vrindāvan. I believe that in both the above works Vrindāvan is an error for Gokul, which stands 12 m. south of it and on the opposite bank of the Jamuna.
