King Porus, brave he was,
fought the war/batle
near the Jhelum river,
was defeated by
Alexander the Great.
The generals in Alexander's army
praised the courageous Porus,
who stood alone,
in the battle- field,
Alexander welcomed Porus,
In his tent.
told him,
' you are lost in the
battle,
' how would you like
to serve me like other kings? '
Porus replied,
'No.Never,
Then Alexander asked.
' How shall I treat you? ''
Porus replied,
'I was a king, and I wish
you to treat me like a king only.'
Alexander gave back his kingdom,
From then on they were friends/
