EPIGRAPHIA INDICA.
[VOL. XII.
L. 36.-Instead of vv. 32 ff. K. gives a totally different version, nine verses long, in which first Satyābraya's younger brother, whom it calls Yaśðvarman, is extolled for his conquests, then it mentions his queen Bhagyavati, the couple being compared to Visbņu and Lakshmi, and then likens the birth of Vikramaditya V from her to that of Skanda from Uma and that of Rāma from Kausalya; and finally it eulogises Vikramāditya, who is compared to Indra. Instead of this, M. devotes two verses to the praise of Satyāśraya's heroism, and then proceeds to verse 32 of our text, Tasy=ānujah Sri-Dasavarma-nāmā, etc. Y. agrees with our text, except that it reads Bhagyavatuiti instead of Bhagyavati cha on 1. 37, as does M. also.
L. 38.-After verse 33 of our text, M. inserts three verses in praise of Vikramaditya V. L. 40.-M. vikramādhyo. After verse 35, M. adds another stanza, on the game topic.
L. 41.-Y. reads gandarol-ganda, "hero among heroes"; ol is the usual Old-Kanarese ending of the locative case; the ul of our text stands for ul, a variant of ol.
L. 42.- After verse 36, M. and Y. add another on the same topic. Our verse 37 is not in M., which now passes on to the documentary business.
L. 43.-To verse 39, Y. prefixes the word mangalan, after which are appended some lines in Kanarese by a later hand.
L. 45.-Y. reads "hara-bhay-odbhiti
L. 47:--After our verse 40, Y. adds another stanza in praise of Jayasirisha II, and reade auddhritya instead of auddhatya.
L. 54.-Y. reads apahatao.
