A CRITICAL STUDY OF PAUMACARIYAM
... III Sing. हिइ-ही-होहिइ ११६।२ नेही–५३।६२, होही–६।१७ Plu. स्सन्ति–वहिस्सन्ति ४।८० हन्ति-भवीहन्ति- ११८७२,
हिन्ति--होहिन्ति ५१११६ Forms marked with* lengthen the vowel before the augment. This kind of lengthening is noticed in the VH also (VH, Tr. p. 19).
Pischel (533) quotes such instances from the Apabhramsa literature. Actually it is lengthening of the short vowel when one of the two members of a conjunct following the short vowl is dropped.
Besides there are some typical (archaic) forms of future tense as indicated:
ham' for I. Sing. = 'hoham' 6.58, 'kaham' 6,72,178312.20;22.6; 31.9;63.67. Pischel (530) observes it in the Amg. and the JM. .... 'ssam' for I Sing. ='pavissam' 109.19, 'maggissam' 24.39, 'vocchain' 20.181, 'pecchissam' 102.2, 'muccissam 102.198. Pischel (531.530) observes it generally in the Sauraseni; and sometimes in the Amg. and the MH.
There is one instance of appending the augment 'hu' for future tense--'havihunti' 118.68, III Plural. .
Out of various moods Imperative is regularly used. Potential is sometimes used otherwise it is expressed by appending the participles of potential to the roots.
Imperative Mood I Sing. मु-माणेमु ७०।५२ II. Sing. -पेच्छ ५।१७८ सु-साहसु २८।१४ हि-एहि ८।२१८
Plu. ह—गेण्हह ३।१४२ परिहरह १४।१४६ III. Sing उ-होउ ४।४३, अच्छउ ६४।१८
___Plu. न्तु-करन्तु ४।७०, रक्खन्तु ११८।११६
'Ha' as plural and 'hi' as singular termination are used for the same II person in the sentence noted below. It is an occasion of panic hence such uses sound natural
भाउय मा जाह लहु नियत्तेहि ६७।२०.
In the sentence quoted below 'ha' is used for II Sing. But here Rama during his madness speaks these words.
_ 'अत्थरह लहुं सेज्ज सोमित्ती १११।१३.
Potential Mood I. Sing. होज्ज ७५॥६४. II. Sing. एज्जसु ४४।२३ गणेज्जासु ६४।६६ III. Sing. हवेज्ज ३५६५ पाविज्जा २।२०.
