विप्रलब्धा तमुपालमते. 22. Gondali, the Hunter's Dance (cf. Apabhramśa gondala
"confused uproar' and the Marathi folk performance called gumdhal) was Sanskritized as Kundali and associated with Kundalini. See Nịttaratnāvali of Jāya-Senāpati, edited by V. Raghavan (1965), Introduction, pp. 134-136. I am thankful to Dr. Raghavan for drawing my attention to this reference. He also kindly informed me that such Sanskritizations of the names of various popular types and the later error of taking the alternatives as two distinct types are quite common. This finds support in Jāya's treatment of Carcarl and Nāțya-Rāsaka
as two distinct forms. 23. ATEISAL 99: 9540T quata Tota

P.S. In the Old Gujarati Sripāla-rāsa of Vinayavijaya (1682 A. D.), there is a short description of a troupe of Dumbas, singing and dancing before a king in the royal assembly and being rewarded for their performance (Khanda 3, Dhāl 4, Stanza 4; p. 149 of the edition published by B.R. Vora, 1937). There a beautiful miniature depicting this episode in a Ms. of the poem dated 1829. See U. P. Shah, Treasures of Jain Bhandāras, 1978, colour plate J.
