________________ 22 PAUMACARIU Chandonusāsana was the only work to which we glanced with some hope of getting light on all sorts of metrical problems of Ap. And we know well how often it failed ust. Under the circumstances, a pre-Hemacandra work on Ap. metres from the pen, not of a mere theoretician, but of an epic poet recognised as Kavirāja and Mahakavi, deserves, in spite of its briefness, to be welcomed. And in view of its value as an early authentic source, a short analysis of the Ap. section of SC. will not be here out of place. c. The Janaka with3-42) of the name you Dhavala 42) D.

But none of these works even comes near to doing full justice to their subject. Jain Education International For Private & Personal Use Only www.jainelibrary.org
