Bana's daughter, a maiden, Ushá by
name, had in a dream enjoyment with a
lover (Aniruddha), the son of Kama,
whom she had neither seen nor heard of
before.

चित्रलेखा तमाज्ञाय प्राधुम्नि योगमास्थिता ।
गृहीत्वा शोणितपुरं सख्यै प्रियमदर्शयत् ॥
 
Identifying that lover as Aniruddha,
the son of Kama, Chitralekha, (Usha's
maid), resorted to her Yogic powers,
brought Aniruddha to Sonitapura and
showed the lover to her friend.
 
गूढः कन्यापुरे शश्वत् प्रवृद्धस्नेहया तया ।
नाहगणान् स बुबुधे, बाणोऽद्राक्षीद् यदूद्वहम् ॥
 
Remaining concealed in the maiden's
apartments, Aniruddha knew not the
days passing, in the company of Usha,
whose love had greatly increased. (But)
Bana found out the scion of the Yadus.*
 
Aniruddha was the son of Pradyumna or Kama
who was the son of Krishna and Rukmini.
