järisao jar nāmā jaha ya kato jārisaphalam deṁti je vi ya karemti pāvā pāņavahaṁ tań nisāmehal/31/
Then follows in prose, first an explanation of the påņivaha; then 30 of its synonyms (nāmāņi imāņi gonnāņi); then the subject itself is treated of, at the conclusion of which the entire doctrine is referred immediately to Nāyakulanardana (Jñata);389 evam āharsu Näyakulanaṁdano mahappā Jiņo u Viravaranāmadhejjo, kahesi ya pāņivahassa phalavivāgam; eso so panivadho caído. (as in the introduction) vemaņaso.
The next four sections are similarly arranged, except that after the vocative Jambū the treatment of the aliyavayanam, adinnādāņań, abambhar, pariggaha, begins without the interposition of găthā strophies. The synonyms are invariably 30 in number and the conclusion is the same.
In the case of the five saṁvaradārāim, two gåthås are found in the introduction of the first (ahimśa) after Jambu 1.390
itto sarvaradārā-i parca vucchāmi āņupuvvie / jaha bhaniyāņi Bhagavayā savvadukkhavimukkhaṇatthāe/1/1
padhama hoi ahiṁsā, biiyam saccavayanaṁ ti pannattam/dattam aņuņņāya sarvaro ya bambhaceraṁ pariggahattam||2|1.
1331] The further details in dāras 6-10 are similar to those in dāras 1-5. The enumeration of the synonyms, which are here called pajjavanāmāni,-60 in the case of ahiṁsā-is carried on in a style somewhat different, and the concluding formula is not the same :-- evaṁ Nāyamuniņā bhagavayā pannaviyaṁ parūviyaṁ pasiddhar siddham siddhavarasāsaņam iņam āghaviyaṁ suvesiyam pasattham (padhamar) samvaradaraṁ samattam ti bemi. The last two concluding words form a bond of connection between the existing redaction of anga 10 and angas 1-4, to which these words belong. Furthermore, the appeal to the Nāya recalls anga 2. Perhaps we have to deal here with traces of ancient date; but, on the other hand, if we consider how many considerations make for the opposite conclusion a conservative point
389. See above, p. 261, on anga 2, 1, 27. 390 There are five gāthas more inserted between dāras 5 and 6.
