INTRODUCTION
69 to 84, 85 to 94, and 95 to 106 Sts. Twenty-three Sts. from 107 to 129 are confined to the explanation of the Dreams which are broadly of two types, e. g. Devadakahia and Sahaja though they both are essentially the same as said in St. 114. The Paccakkha Rittha is treated in five Sts. from 130 to134, while the Linga Rittha, the two main features of which are Sariravisaya and Jalaidansana, has been touched in Sts. 135 to 142 and 143 to 147 respectively. Ninety-five Sts. from 148 right upto 242 are solely reserved for the fullest enunciation of the Panha Riṭṭha which again is eightfold:
Sts. 148-152 discuss the Angulipanha.

Sts. 220-223 (topics dealt with in twenty-one Sts. from Sts. 220 to 240 have been given, it seems, a general name of the Horapanha) inform us about the knowledge of the Rittha 28 through the Nadicakka and the Bhuañagacakka. Forebodings of death through the Sanicakka are referred to in Sts. 224-226. Sts. 227-236 give a judgment as to how many days a particular Air such as a, i, u, e or o remains in force. St. 237 records an opinion that one does not live if his constellation, zodiacal sign, a group and the date are all pierced by the wicked planets. A scheme of the Avakahaḍacakka is outlined in Sts. 238-240. The knowledge of the Rittha through the Lagga is briefly sketched in Sts. 241 and 242.
