Chapter
58:
Krishna
also Weds Kâlindî, Mitravindâ,
Satyâ and Bhadrâ
(17) When the two great
chariotfighters took a bath there and drank the clear
water, saw the two Krishnas [see B.G. 10: 37] a
maiden walking charming to behold.
(45) Thus hearing of
the condition set, tightened the Master His clothes and
did He, turning Himself into seven, subdue them like it
was a simple game.
Chapter
59:
Mura
and Bhauma Killed and the Prayers of
Bhûmî
(7) Raising his
trident, most difficult to behold with an effulgence as
terrible as the fire of the sun, attacked he, as if he
with his five mouths would swallow the three words, like
the son of Tâkshya [Garuda] attacks a
snake.
(21) To kill Krishna took Bhauma, frustrated in his
endeavors, up His trident, but before he could even
release it, cut the Lord with the razor-sharp edge of His
cakra off the head of Bhaumâsura as he sat on his
elephant.
(34) The women seeing
Him, the most excellent of all men, entering, enchanted
chose for Him, who was brought by fate, as the husband
they desired.
Chapter
60:
Lord
Krishna Teases Queen Rukminî
(20) We indifferent to
home and body indeed do not hanker for wives, children
and wealth; We remain completely satisfied within
Ourselves like a light engaged in no activity.'
Chapter
61:
Lord
Balarâma Slays Rukmî at Aniruddha's
Wedding
(36) This way in the
auspicious assembly [of the marriage], by
Rukmî insulted, being the laughingstock of the
kings present raised He angered His club and struck He
him dead.
Chapter
62:
Ûshâ
in Love and Aniruddha Apprehended
(17)
Speaking thus she
accurately drew demigod and heavenly singer, the one
perfected, the venerable one and the lowlife serpent, the
demon, the magician, the supernatural and the human.
(28)
Bâna upon
hearing of the defilement of his daughter most disturbed
quickly headed for the maiden quarters where he upon his
arrival saw the most eminent of the Yadus.
Chapter
63:
The
Fever in Conflict and Bâna Defeated
(6) Bhagavân
S'iva rode out on Nandi, his bull, together with his son
[Kârtikeya, his general] and was
accompanied by the Pramathas [his different mystic
attendants] to fight with Râma and Krishna for
Bâna's sake.
(23) Lord
Nârâyana, seeing him, thereupon released His
fever [of extreme cold instead] so that the two
Jvaras of Mâhes'vara and Vishnu came to fight each
other.
