KAŃSAVAHO
at TT0 10. 26. 1-15. This narration of events reminds us of the praise poured on कृष्ण by भीष्म in शिशुपाल xiv. 54 etc.
12. The fr renders HERRIHET, on that memorable night, taking संस्मर-संस्मरणीय. I have however taken शम्बररात्रिमध्ये 'on a ' cloudy night'. The cther part I have thus consurued: pfsetool Jei Jaror jeften (GER). On this and the next verse, cf. HTITO 10. 3 closing verses, espically No. 51 which runs thus: quia a त्यसकृद्यमानुजा गम्भीरतोयाघजवोर्मिफेनिला । भयानकावर्तशताकुला नदी मार्ग
et forfra fwy: 9:11 I have translated 12 & 13 as independent verses apparently taking å for f. As they stand 11-13 would be taken together. ___13. शौरिः a patronymic of वसुदेव. In exchanging कृष्ण with a cowherd girl Vasudeva was a loser; but the gravity of the occa. sion demanded it, because mour's life was in danger. The figure of speech is अथान्तरन्यास. तुए-त्वया, quite usual in dramas.
14. See TITO 10. 6. 79t was a female demon, a daughter of afs. She attempted to kill the infant not by suckling him, but instead of her milk of sucked her life and reduced her to death. She goes to better worlds as she meets her end at the hands of divine tut whom she tried to suckle. ___ 15. घरेसएण is an अलुक् compound. तृणावर्त was a demon in the service of a who sent him to destroy tot. He assured the form of a whirlwind (25ata:), covered the area of Jeses with dust and sand, and in that turmoil carried off the infant out, but was overpowered by the weight of the child and was consequently killed. Hop=27 (Pischel § 427-28). Farst (=aaa) was reduced to the position of चक्कवाअ (चक्रवाक bird) in the lake of the Tam , i. e., he was killed. See T. 10. 7. 20. etc.
