________________ 100 P. 237. L. 20-21. P. 238. L. 1-2 (Verse 13). I stumble but the ground is not miry or muddy, my left eye throbs and my left arm trembles repeatedly, still that bird screams again and again. (These all) presage cruel death there is no doubt in that.[जिझिताध्मातकुक्षिः]-जिझितो वक्रितः आध्मातः स्फीतश्च कुक्षिर्यस्य-whose middle is coiled and puffed up.-[शकुनिरपरः] Vulture or owl. हरिणी Metre. 'नसमरसलागः षड्वेदैर्हयैर्हरिणी मता.'

The harsh notes of a crow portend dire calamity. So do his cries when he faces the sun and perches on a blighted tree. Cf. S'ârngadharapaddhati 2671 and 2673 verses, also Brihatsamhita.
