 Thus having spoken, and the realm having been placed In the hands oi Ru. manvat, Yaugandharayana ses out from Kausambi along with Vasantaka. And he entered with him into tho great Vind- hya forest. full of life like his own wis- dom, and difficult like his own policy He came to the palace of the king of the Pulindas who was named pulindaka and a friend of the Rsja of Vatsa. This Pu- lindaka dwels upon peak of the Vind- hya mountain. Attended by a large army he was so placed by YaugandharayanA that he could protect the Rsja of Vatsa when he should return that way, and then Yaugandharayana went on with Vasantaka, and at last reached the ceme- tery of Mahakala In Uijayini which was particularly infested with vampires smell ing of carrion, fitting hither and shi,her, black as night, rivaling the smoke of the funeral pyres. Then a BrahmAn. .Ra ak shasa named Yogesvara, came up i'm me diately to him, who was delighted to sec him and took him into his friendship then Yaugandarayana by means of de- vice which was taught him suddenly changed his form. And by this he i'm mediately became hump. backed and old, and being dressed like a veritable mad man he caused great deal of laughter By this device he then made the form of Vasantaka into one with knotted, pro. jecting veins, big belly, long teeth and a hideous mouth.

Aad he made a sign to the Raja by which he was known although disguised. Then YaugandhAra- yana, by means of his magic art, became invisible to VasavadattA and her maids So the Rsja alone saw him, and all greatly asto1ished, said: "This madman has suddenly gone somewhere" And the Raja oi Vatsa, when he heard them say this, seeing that Yaugandharayana was standing in front of him, believed that |, was due to his magic art, and cYafsily said to Vasavadatta "Go, my girl, and bring here what is neediul for the worship of Sarasvah."
