NALA AND DAMAYANTI 99 hour passed in recounting the sorrows of their separation.

The next day were Nala and Damayanti received together in royal audience by Bhima. And in due time, Koli being now gone out from him, Naia made his way to his own kingdom of the Nishadas and recovered his throne, and then, returning for his queen, Damayanti, and their children, he took them all back to their own home, and they lived there happily together ever after.
