NARAD A AND KAXSA.
SKANDIIA X. CHAP. 36.
Narada told Kansa: "The female child \va.s the daughter of
Yasoda; Krishna and Rama are sons of Devaki. Vasudeva kept them
with his friend Nanda out of fear. Those t\vo brothers have killed
your spies." In rage the king of Bhoja took his sword to kill
Vasudeva. Narada prevented him. But the King put Yasucleva
and his wife in iron fetters. He then ordered Kesi to kill Rama
and Krishna. He called his ministers together in council. Address-
ing Chanur and Mushtika he said:- " Rama and Krishna are to kill
us. So Narada told me." Those t\vo Asuras came ready for
Vraja. But Kansa said: "No, you need not go. I shall send for
the two brothers and kill them in a wrestling match. So prepare the
playground. Place the elephant Kubalayapida at the entrance and
let him kill my enemies. On the fourteenth day of the Moon, let us
commence Dhanus Yajna, and let animals be killed in honor of
Siva."
Kansa then sent for Akrura, one of the chiefs of the Yadu
clan. " Akrura," said he, " Thou art my friend and do the work of a
friend. Please go to Vraja. Take this chariot and bring the t\vo sons
of Vasudeva. Tell them, they are to see the Dhanus Yajna and have
a sight of the town. Let Nanda and other Gopas come with presents.
The elephant shall kill the two boys. Or if perchance they escape,
the wrestlers shall do away with them. I will then make easy work
of Vasudeva, my old father Ugrasena, his brother JDevaka, the
Vrishnis, the Bhojas and the Dasarhas. Then, O friend, the earth
will be left without a thorn. Jarasandha is my guide. Dvivid is my
friend. Samvara, Naraka, and Vana have made alliance with me.
With the help of these, I shall kill all kings that are on the side of
the Devas. Know this to be my plan." Akrura said: "The design
is all right. But it may or may not succeed. Even lofty desires are
frustrated by unforeseen obstacles. Still man entertains them, to
meet with either joy or sorrow. But I will do thy behests."
The council broke up.
