bhatat, and in construation with samutpannal; or to alter adhanabhacet into the genitive, in apposition with tasya, wrongly used for the ablative in construction with samutpannah, in support of which we have apparently a similar wrong 10 of the genitive in line 5; or even to alter adhanabhatat into the nominative, a second adjective qualifying Raparigh. But on the whole I think we may take it that the genitive tasya is correot, and is governed by anurupa, and that the ablative which samutpanna requires is provided by adhanabhdtat; and this construction, which entails no alteration of the text at all, is the one that I have followed in my translation.
* This sau was at first omitted, and then was inserted below the line. * Read riddhis; or, according to the more waual oustom, Sauryy-arddhis.
Road tija-utadha, which is the proper aandhi of tar + utadha, 10 Kielhorn's Banskrit Grammar, 6 548 (a), combined with $ 85 (c).
Hore we seem to have the first eight or oloven syllables of a Bloka. Here the genitive tasya seems to be certainly used in construction with samutpanau; but it may have been suggested by the upama in one of the intervening worde.
* In the first syllable, the p is rather imperfect; the upward stroke not having been fully formed. Bat. there is enough of it to shew that p was oertainly intended.
* The second syllable is a little damaged, and may be taken as somewhat doubtful. But I can only read it as tto; and I think that this is what it really is.
* This dha was at first omitted, and then we inserted below the lipe. * Read prabhurity-andka.
It should be noted how distinotily the vowel is d in the third syllable. # These two syllables, chara, were at first omitted, and then wore inserted below the line. 30 These two syllables, napra, were at first omitted, and then were inserted below the line.
Thone two syllables, jdna, were at first omitted, and then were inserted below the line; the jd is below the na of vidhdna, and is rather damaged.
Here we have plainly half of a Bioks. # Road pradua. . . Read oderudova iva Sriman.
* Read mondhatefua. * Here, gain, we have plainly hall.of. Boka
Road sa ch-Ottaradig, or sa uttaradig, or samyageuttaradig.
