THE INDIAN ANTIQUARY.

be referred and indeed limited to v. 1 - 4 alone in so far as these verses appear as a prelude of secondary origin. In the four verses which then follow are contained the titles of the 36 sections :

Then comes the text kar' toxów which begins with the question sê kim tam ajivapannavaņa ?. It consists furthermore of the questions of Go(yama) and the answers probably of Mahavira, though it is ancertain whether Mahêvîra be meant or not, since there is absolutely no addition of a legendary colouring. These questions and answers are couched in the style and manner of the dialogues in the Bhagavatî, and though there is here a connecting thread (which we do not find in the Bhagavati), every padam forming a connected whole, nevertheless, there is, as a rule, (396] no genetic succession of the padas, despite the fact that Malayagiri makes every effort at the beginning of every padanı to restore57 the connection with what has gone before. Many gâhâs are found in the middle of the text, and many of the padas begin with a short statement of contents clothed in gâthi form - dâragåhå (dvåragatha). There are no legends whatsoever. The "contents" is as dreary as that (cf. above p. 389) of the third uvamga, which is closely connected with it, is dogmatic, speculative or even fantastic, and contains but little of general interest. There is much, however, that is important in the first book in the section on Man, who is divided into two classes : milikkha and ariya. First there is an enumeration of 53 Mlâchha peoples, secondly an enumeration of 25% (1) Aryan peoples with their chief cities, and lastly an enumeration of 18 manners of writing. All this possesses some chronological valde which would be more apparent if the names had not been so corruptly handed down to us. Malayagiri offers us no assistance in the case of the first and third enumeration.
In the list of the Milikkhas (Milakkbas) the names are frequently the same as those cited, p. 332 from anga 10, and are arranged in the same order of succession. Various differences of detail are, however, not wanting, and in fact the names here make a less favourable impression upon us and seem to be of less antiquity.58 They are :50 - Saga (397] Javans Chiliya Savara Pappara (Babbars BO) Kiya (only ya BC) Murumdo 'dda (ddha C) Bhadaga Ninnaga Pakkauiya Kulakkhâ Komdaco (Gonda C) Sihara 60 (Sihala) Pârasa 6o Godbova (Gadhô

It is of interest that the name Aravaga has been completely misunderstood.
