being lost, as that word becomes noninitial in a compound. ilfa -कचित्. Though the छाया equates कोच्चि with क्वचित् , it is rather difficult to justify this equation grammatically. I would suggest that कोच्चि might stand for कश्चित्. Note मइंग for मृदङ्ग, usually we have , also fhall (see Pischel $ 51 ).
55. Though the author is describing the scenes from HYT, after all he belongs to the western coast; so possibly he refers to the female singers from the East.
56. The author depicts a scene of grammarians' debate at HYRT. They are discussing a point of Sanskrit grammar. The case in issue is the Sandhi between two words like got 34741. According to the rule of Pāṇini tu (vi. i. 77 ), the $ at the end of सुधी is changed to य्. Thus we get सुध्य्+उपास्य. Now according to the EFT, 37ma (viij. iv. 47 ), the consonant, which is preceded by the vowel 3 and followed by the consonant is to be doubled optionally: +34777, But in view of the fact that the substitute letter has the same value as the original (स्थानिवद् आदेशो), i. e., the consonant 2 is as good as the vowel and should not therefore have the effect of duplicating the preceding a. This means that the rule of a should become inoperative. But this objection is set at rest by the f which adds talenat not when a rule of letter is to be applied.' The rule is not inoperative, because of the speaft, i. e., at the time of the application of the letter-rule like stufa 7. I may quote here the relevent portion from सिद्धान्तकौमुदी-इको यणचि १६३११७७। इक: स्थाने यण् स्यादचि सहितायां विषये । सुधी उपास्य इति स्थिते । स्थानत आन्तर्यादीका
