25. Of these the first two are published in the Prūcin Gürjar
Kāvya Sangrah. The third is published in the Prācina Gūrjara
Kāyya Samcaya. 26. See, H. C. Bhayani, “The Prakrit and Deśa-bhāṣā passages
in Somešvara’s Mānasollāsa', K. K. Handiqui Felicitation
Volume, p. 167 ff. 27. A Sanskrit metre variously called Pañcacāmara, Vasanta
câmara, Vasantacatvara etc. is defined in metrical manuals (Velankar, Chandonuśāsana, p. 293, no. 12.5). One of the last
two names of the metre seems to be originating from scribal error. 28. Incidentally, we may note that there is considerable variation
in nomenclatures we find in different metrical traditions and practices as reflected in metrical manuals, and this tends to create some confusion. Hemacandra's Dvipadi-khanda is quite different (Chandonuśāsana IV 85). He has cited as illustration Ratnāvali. The combination of Dvipadi + Gīti, which is called Duvai-khamdalaya at Kuvalayamālā p. 52. 11. 12-15, is termed Dvibhangi by Svayambhū ( Svayambhūcchandas. p. 2-1). But according to the Chandonuśāsana IV 86, Dvibhangi is Dvipadi + Giti. However in his illustration of Dvibhangi we find Dvipadi + Lalitā (Chandonušāsana. IV 10). This Lalitā is called Gitikā in the Janaśrayi and it is different from Gīti (Chandonuśāsana IV 6). Further eventhongh Uddyotana has called the song at Kuvalayamālā, p. 116. 11. 18-19 Duvaikhardalaya, it is just a Dvipadi without the following Giti. One more occurrence of the combination of Dvipadi + Giti we find at Kuvalayamālā, p. 94, II. 8-10. References at Kuvala
yamālī, Part II, p. 85. 29. The word is recorded in the form चिलीणय as well as विलीणय..
The former seems to be the correct form. See H. C. Bhayani, ‘Studies in Hemacandra's Desinaramälä 1966, p. 13, s. v. farload (= Studies in Deśya Prakrit, 1988, p. 11-12); R. N. Shriyan, A Critical Study of Yakāpurāne of Puspa-danta, 1969, no. 955.
