Doha 171
तापस नृप निज सखहि निहारी। हरषि मिलेउ उठि भयउ सुखारी॥ मित्रहि कहि सब कथा सुनाई। जातुधान बोला सुख पाई॥१॥
अब साधेउँ रिपु सुनहु नरेसा। जौं तुम्ह कीन्ह मोर उपदेसा॥ परिहरि सोच रहहु तुम्ह सोई। बिनु औषध बिआधि बिधि खोई॥२॥
कुल समेत रिपु मूल बहाई। चौथें दिवस मिलब मैं आई॥ तापस नृपहि बहुत परितोषी। चला महाकपटी अतिरोषी॥३॥
भानुप्रतापहि बाजि समेता। पहुँचाएसि छन माझ निकेता॥ नृपहि नारि पहिं सयन कराई। हयगृहँ बाँधेसि बाजि बनाई॥४॥
Meaning
The hermit-king was delighted to see his ally and rose to meet him. The meeting gave him much satisfaction and he related the whole story to his friend. The demon too was glad and said, (1) “Listen, O king, since you have followed my advice, take the enemy as subdued. Cease to worry now and lay yourself to rest. God has effected a cure without resort to medicine. (2) “I will sweep away the enemy root and branch and see you on the fourth day.” Fully reassuring the hermit-king, the arch-impostor, who was highly irascible, departed. (3) In an instant he conveyed Pratāpabhānu to his palace, horse and all. Putting the king to bed beside his queen, he tied up the horse in the stable in the proper way. (4)
राजा के उपरोहितहि हरि लै गयउ बहोरि। लै राखेसि गिरि खोह महुँ मायाँ करि मति भोरि॥१७१॥
Meaning
Again he carried off the king’s family priest and, depriving him of his senses by his supernatural power, kept him in a mountain-cave. (171)
