________________ 566 STUDIES IN JAIN LITERATURE तावता. The word अविरिकाओ (Gatha No 94) seems to be a misprint for अणिरिक्काओ. Again, one does not feel very sure whether the reading act 07317 (Gatha No. 92) is correct or a scribal error for TISHU31). The Index "listing 18 verses from the text that are quoted in other works" mentions only one work, viz. Kavyanusasanam which is later compared to earlier standard works such as Dhvanyaloka., Sarasvatikanthabharana, Srngaraprakasa, and Kavyaprakasa that quote about fifty verses occurring in Saptasatisara. It is very likely that in selecting his century of Gathas Vema Bhupala was influenced by his study of these standard works on Poetics. At the end of this text and commentary the editor presents by way of Parisistam his excellent paper on Chappannayagahao which was first published in the Journal of the Oriental Institure, Baroda, Vol. IX, IV. June 1962. The value of this paper is greatly enhanced by the addition of Sanskrit Chaya by the Editor himself to the Prakrit text. We congratulate Dr. Upadhye on presenting this volume to the scholarly readers of Prakrit language and literature and of Sanskrit Poetics.
