Grammar
After the 4th पाद we find
शब्दात्मिका या त्रिजगद्विभर्ति स्फ(स्फुरद्विचित्रार्थसुधां सवंती। या बुद्धिरीड्या विदुषां हृदब्जे मुखे च सा मे वशमस्तु नित्यं ॥
उणादिविषयेऽप्रसिद्ध पंचमं पादं प्रकाशयन्नाह । अभावीशेः कुः ॥१॥etc. After this fifth we also find a sixth पाद which begins-पटिकमिमुशि
कुशिभ्यः कलः॥१॥ कुटेः कीरः ॥२॥ Ends - महेर्हस्य घः ॥ ६६ ॥ मुहेर्गुणश्च ॥ ६७ ॥ सावरिन् दीर्घश्च ॥ ६८॥ इझुणादौ
सूत्रतः षष्ट(?)पादः समाप्तः ॥
Reference - No. 771 of India Office Catalogue. The Sūtras of this
Ms. do not at all correspond to our Ms. It is a doubtful point whether the sūtras of the India Office Ms. belong to the Kātantra school at all, since the Colophon faragkaचक्रवर्तिकृता उणादिवृत्तिः समाप्ता of that Ms. is a later addition. The India Office No. 771 corresponds rather to No. 834 of
the same Catalogue. Editions -The New Catalogus Catalogorum (II, 295) mentions -
(1) Dacca, 1886, but with several differences and (2) Madras University Sanskrit Series 7, part 6. ii. 1934.
