Sannarāiccacariya contains descriptions pertaining to the ugliness of Aggisamma (p. 10), a temple of Candiyā (pp. 530-532), Juino monks* (pp. 43-44), marriage ceremony (pp. 93-98), birth-celebration (pp. 31-33), & court-scene (PP. 556-561), voyages etc.
A device known as Sråkhala' found in Sayagada (I, 15 ) is utilized in this work in v. 159-163 of Bhava I and v. 23 and 47-51 of Bhava VI. We come across examples of the figures of speech such as Parisankhyā, Sliştopamā etc. Poetical conventions play their role as can be easily inferred from the names of several trees mentioned in Bhava II (p. 103). Maxims are met with, here and there.
Most of the verses are in Arya and at times in Vipulā, Verse 23 of Bhava VI is in Prastāra as described in Chando'nzsåsana and v. 125 of Bhava II (p. 89) in Dopai (Sk. Dvipadi), a Páïya metre used in Ratnāvali (v. 14-16), Sobhanastuti (v. 69-72), Acaradinakara (p. 167) and Aindrastuti (V,'69-72), and defined in Chando'nusasana (p. 32).
Verse 61 of Bhava I occurs as v. 229 of Bhava I. It appears as if it is a quotation as is the case with some other verses. See fn. 2 of p. XLVII.
1 For their identifications soo Life in the Gupta Age (pp. 380-381) by
Dr. R. N. Saletore, 2 This is compared by me with that of Jarad-dravida Brāhmaṇa given
in Kadambarī almost at the end of its pūrvabhāga' (pp. 398401, “Nirnaya-Sāgar' edn). See my article at TT 21577
published in the Dipotsavi issue of "Gujaräti" dated 3-11-39. 3 Cf. the beautiful description of Vindhyavāsint occurring in Gaiidavaha
(pp. 285-338). 4 They are described as sojourning in parks situated near the town
and not as living in temples. 5 For a short summary in Gujarati see my article "rifi susta
TESTITAE PAS published in " e yeria T HELET 19"
(pp. 362-363). 6 The line "ford fiaTACT 17" occurring in Bhopa VI (p. 502)
reminds one of the following line of Raindvali (II, p. 39 of Kalo's edn.):
