Chandapradyot's nostrils flared with anger
I have been cheated. A great deception. Conniving Mrigavati has made a fool of me. Attack Kaushambi once again. Surround it and blow it to bits.
Udayan and Vasavadatta
One morning divine drums sounded in the sky and gods pronounced
It seems that the final moment has arrived.
Tomorrow Shraman Bhagavan Mahavir, the Lord of three worlds, is coming to the garden in Kaushambi.

# The divine religious assembly.
The army of Avanti again surrounded Kaushambi. All efforts were made to crash the gates open using mad elephants. But not a single gate could be smashed. The impregnable fort was constructed by Chandapradyot's own army. Chandapradyot was utterly disappointed.
Oh! What treachery
Defeated and disappointed, Chandapradyot's army camped just outside the fort.
Next morning, accompanied by thousands of white-clad women, queen Mrigavati, with a white flag in her hand, came out of the city gates and proceeded towards the Samavasaran" of Bhagavan Mahavir. Chandapradyot was a helpless witness.
Hail Bhagavan Mahavir, the apostle of compassion.

Oh! Now
I can't even arrest them.
