And instantly beguiled the devils.(26)(1)

Dohira
In the country of Narnaul, there lived a Raja known as Vijay Singh.
He used to spend most of the time lying down with Phool Mati.(1)
The person, whom Vijay Singh revered all the eight watches of the day,
Was Phool Mati, and she was like a bunch of flowers.(2)
One day Vijay Singh went out for the purpose of hunting,
There he came across one Bharam Kala and he felt an ardent desire for her.(3)
Chaupaee
He got married there and brought the woman home.
Be married her and brought her home, as she had fat :n for Raja too.
Phul Mati (talk of new marriage) got very angry.
On learning this, Phool Mati became angry but received her honourably.(4)
He (Ful Mati) showed great affection to him
She gave her intense love and called her as her righteous-sister.
But (that) woman (Ful Mati) kept a lot of anger in her heart.
Internally she was furious and had decided to annihilate her.(5)
To that woman (meaning sleep) whose worshiper knew,
The one she revered, she made up her mind to terminate.
(He) built a temple of Rudra
Spending a lot of money she got a temple of Shiv a buill up.(6)
Both the sleepers used to go there
Both the co-wives went there and v’orshipped Shiva.
The temple ('mut'-math) was very good and had a tall flag adorning it
The pinnacle of the temple was quite high and it was appreciated by the gods, devils and all othds.(7)
Dohira
All the ladies of the town went to that temple,
And returned to their households after idolising Shiva.(8)
Arril
One day the queen took him (Bhramar Kala) there
One day the Rani took her there, brandishing a sword in her hand, she cut her head off.
Cut off the head and put it on (the idol of) Shiva
The cut-off head, she presented to Shiva, and, herself, she came and told the Raja.
Dohira
‘The righteous-sister has taken me to the temple,
‘And there she cut her head and presented to Shiva.’(10)
Chaupaee
Hearing this, the king came there.
Learning this, the Raja came to the place where her severed head was lying.
Seeing this (the king) was astonished in his mind.
He was astcnished but he did not dispute the woman.(11)
Dohira
(He said,) ‘The woman, who has cut her head off, and, with her own hands, has presented to Shiva,
‘She and her parents are worthy ofhonours.’(12)
