words; अवसृत, अपमृत and उपसृत; the com. it may be noted, equates it with golfa. 320) B appears to read 'raits fastig, but the com., as in some other places, interprets the reading of P, adopted in the text here. eratg fant शरच्छिया वियुक्तः 'without शरच्छी '; for the use of Instr. with वियुक्त see Speijer's Sanskrit Syntax, Leyden 1886, p. 46. 321) ffat ali Nom. for Acc. sing., it may be noted that in Apabhrarśa the forms like ag, a are identical for both Nom. and Acc. sing.

I told her that nothing could be more beautiful than her own place, Alakāpuri ; but if she wants to go, we should go there early in the morning. In our swift Vimana we started along with our companions towards the south and reached a rich palace in the centre of a beautiful garden on the Malayan ranges (Garden and Malaya mountain described 341-57). A girl seated outside the palace and playing on the Viņā looked up at our Vimāna and invited us in sweet words to visit the park. Our Vimāna came down, and we halted there comfortably. We asked her who she was and to whom did belong that palace with its paraphernalia which bears evidence to the owner's bravery, learning and proficiency in arts. In reply the girl spoke thus: There stands on the Malayan peak the beautiful and well fortified town Kerala ruled by the Siddha king, Malayānila, who has from his first queen Kamală an only beloved son Madhavānila to whom belongs this establishment. My name is Madhavilatā. I am a garden-maid and prince's companion from childhood.' *). 23
