240 STUDIES IN JAIN LITERATURE quite precise in citing references but makes general observations which are not very helpful. The following is an instance in point : (P. 254, 1.20). "The varieties of Rupaka, viz., Vakya-rupaka and Samasa-rupaka, and their varieties and Subvarieties as given by Rudrata are discussed and some of the illustrations given by Rudrata and Nami are reviewed". However, I would like to say that these critical observations in no way detract the value and importance of Prof. Vora's learned introduction. That the Vakroktijivita is one of the sources drawn upon by the Kalpolata- viveka will be clear from the following table : Kalpalataviveka And Vakroktijivita Upama 1. विवक्षित......न सम्भवति / विवक्षित.....क्रियापदम् / / -~~-P. 241 lines 15-18 -III. 30-31 and Vrtti on these karikas 2. यान्त्या मुहुः .... .... ....

P. 444 तद्वल्गुना...पद्मम् / / यदि...इह तु वाक्यैकत्वे नेत्यभिप्रायः / Note : There is loss of text after this stanza. --P. 242 11. 18-21 Probably it is preserved by Kalpalataviveka. 4. उभौ यदि...P. 242, I. 24 उभौ यदि...(from Sisu III, 8)-De, p. 201. -Vivesvara, p. 442, f.n. 1. Note : According to Dandi, Rudrata and Mammata, this verse would be an illustration of adbhutopama, utpadyopama and atisayokti respectively, Kuntaka takes it as an illustration of tulyayogita, Acarya Visvesvara, however, considers the verse to be out of context and relegates it to the footnotes. सौन्दर्यधारेति P. 242, 1. 26 सौन्दर्यसारावधि P. 444. 1. 9 तत्पूर्वानुभवे P. 243, 1, 2 तत्पूर्वानुभवे P. 444, 1,7 एवंविधम् P. 243, 1. 4 एवंविधम् P.445, 1. 1 Note : 'सौन्दर्यधार' is, probably, a scribal mistake for 'सौन्दर्यसारं'. 6. प्रत्येकम्...नियम...
