A CRITICAL STUDY OF PAUMACARIYAN
B. Context:
Some matter is missing between 77.70 to 77,72* (see PCR, 80. 152-158) and before 105.13*. In 9.1a "Āiccayara' should be Āiccaraya'. In 13.29* 'Manirae nayare' should be corrected in the light of PCR, 13.62. In 77.81* 'Hemantapure should be 'Hemankagahe' (see PCR, 80.168). In 82.33a* 'Caupavvartasuie should be "Vasupavvatayasuie' (see PCR, 85.57). In 82.56b 'Vanao' should be 'Dhanao'. In 118.42 Jaņayataņaya' should be Japayakanaya.' In 83.5a 'kāūpa' should be 'caiūna'. In 20.198a 'ti viddhu' should be 'tivittha'.
C. Grammar:
In 78.24b* 'gau' should be 'gao'. In 8.164* 'Uggasene' should be 'Uggasena'.
For the correction of the following instances given under D & E see infra Ch. 11. Sec. 2.
D. Grammar and Metre :
In 43.15 bahave' should be 'bahavesu'.
E. Metre:
In 107.15d 'tamha' should be 'tamha'. Some words or letters are missing or are unsuitable in 14.70*; 17.107* ; 53.115 and 106.1, because the verses should not depart from the running Gatha metre. Verses 14.72 b*; 52.29a*; 70.71c* and 109.26b* are defective.
F. Metre and Siddhānta :
In 2.30# 'aha ațịhakammarahiyassa' should be corrected to 'ahațțhaddhakammarahiyassa' (see infra Ch. 9. Sec. 3).
G. Siddhānta :
In 14.74* 'vicittasayaņāsapam' 'should be vivittasayaņāsaņa»'.
H. Clarity in meaning and in the light of the PCR :
In 5.44* 'Rattațho' should be 'Rattoțýho' (PCR 5.52). In 5.261* "Suvvanto' should be 'Suvvatto' (sse PCR 5.393). In 53.69b 'eņāṁ ditthu maṁ bhadde'='ee paṁdiddumā bhadde' (PCR 53.160).
This mark indicates that the relevant portions in the Paumacariyan published from Prakrit Text Society, Varanasi, in 1962 A. D. and 1968 A. D. also need revision. Some of them can be corrected with the help of 'variant readings' noted under Appendix 7 of that edition.
