to their original sources. In many cases, in this trying task, such works as the Subhāshitāvali (B. S. S.), Kavindravachanasamuchchaya, Saduktikarņāmrta and others have proved very helpful. Heart-felt thanks are due to their editors. At the end of every quotation a rectangular bracket is placed and the names of the works are entered therein. Empty brackets indicate that I did not succeed in tracing the original work up to the time of printing it. Some references were found later on and are given in the addenda. I hope that the empty brackets will be handy to scholars in entering the references whenever they are traced. In the first few forms I put the names of authors as given in the Subhāshitāvalī and other works, but later on gave up the practice as misleading and only mentioned the name Su. etc,
I have, wherever possible, looked into the original works and compared the quotations with the respective passages. This has, sometimes, shown discrepancies which may drive one to interesting conclusions. For example, refer to pp. 63-64. There Bhartrhari is referred to by name, and the verses Hauffà azia etc. are given. Of these the first verse is found in the Benaras S. S. edition of the Vākyapadīya but not the second algeziniraat etc. A careful study of the commentary of Puạyarāja on this verse, and that of the verse No. 316 itself which contains the words औचित्य, देश etc. in the light of the quotation of the Kāvyānusāsana will give some interesting points for the text of the Vākyapadīya. Or refer to the page 89 where Daņdin is mentioned by name and a verse of his quoted; and study the footnote thereon. The verse as quoted in
