We have for this anga the commentary of Abhayadeva. For a special table of contents for the first two books, two-thirds of the third book, for books 34-41, cf. my treatise, of which mention has often been made here and which created a new course for Jaina investigations: "On a fragment of the Bhagavati" part first 1865 part second 1867.265
253 vyakhyāyamteyasyam sa vyakhya; viyahe iti pullinganirdeśaḥ prakṛtatvat; saṭtrinsatsahasranam (vyakaraṇānām) darśanat śrutartho vyakhyāyate iti..vak yasambamdhaḥ. 254 N has here the order loe.., jīvā, sasamae ..; the verb is here correct, viyāhijjai with loe; samae, jjamti with jīvā.
255 vivahe nam C; the following is omitted in N.

265 In the enumeration of daily labours, 1, 378, the statement in lines 9 and foll. is to be explained thus: "at most a whole sayam on one day, a moderate measure in two days, at least a sayam in three days"-see above p. 250. ayamvila in 14 stands for ayamamvila acamamra and signifies a meal taken during a fast consisting of a "sour swallow", a portion of sour pap cf. Leumann Aupap. p. 101, and in a derived sense a division of time necessary for this meal-1. 18 read: "need a day each;" 1.19 read "sedhisayaim (book 34)." Much must be now changed in the middle portion of the treatise.
