The Battle of Digavapi |
|
On hearing about the arrival of the relics, King Parakramabahu was very happy. He marched forwards as far as the river, to receive them. This was a distance of about eight miles. Once he received the relics, he conducted them to the capital, in a procession. Both sides of the road, along which the procession passed were beautifully decorated. The people gathered in huge numbers to join the procession. Once it reached the capital city, the relics were deposited in a special chamber. |
