ADDITIONAL NOTES P. 30 (6. 2. 302). Or perhaps kāraṇa should be taken as
injury,'L. 'I fear an injury (to him).' P. 67 (6. 6. 223). Probably the allusion to its talkative
ness is only general. IS 4879 says that partridges, along with parrots and mainas, owe captivity to their facility in talking. See also Bloomfield, On Talking Birds in Hindu Fiction in the Festschrift
Windisch. P. 91 (6. 8. 31). See also MW, s.v. pañcasūnā. P. 99 (6. 8. 151). This is in accordance with the usual
