811. Ibbha- 29 23 8 'a merchant'.
{The relevant passage is- "tam pecchivi viņbhiu ibbha-tanau"- 'seeing him the merchant's son was astonished'. cf ibbha-= vaņik-= 'a nierchant' (D. 1 79); Musi Ratnacandraji gives ibbha, in the sense of a person possessing wealth which can cover an elephant together with its litter completely' and ibbha-kula- in the sense of a family of rich nierchauts'. In Jain Sanskrit it is used in the sense of a chief or leading and prosperous bania of the community'; cf. ibhya-- 'a wealthy man' (Supplement to J. O. I, Baroda. vol. x. no. 2 p.
110). MW. records it in the sense of 'elephant' and not merchant'.! 812. 1- 67 14 8 'Goddess of wealth

of Lakşmi'.) 813. Vi - 28 36 34 'See ! look !'
