DESYA WORDS FROM THE MAHAPURANA
92 12 12, 93 13 5, 94 10 1, 98 1 10, 98 4 3, 98 5 6, 98 8 7, 99 4 11, 99 10 14, 99 14 7b), 100 4 4, 100 6 14, 101 3 6 'a term of address'. [D. 6 88 records bappa- in the sense of subhata-, 'a warrior', and pila- 'father'. Here bappa- is used as 'a term of address' equivalent to Sk. "tala-". Vaidya in the Glossory to MP. vol. I gives bappa= "putra iti sambodhane". Cf. bappa- in this sense occurring in JC. (2 2 1); cf. bāp= 'term of address' (Jñanesvari). See bappa- above]
1133. Bappiha(y)a- 2 13 13 (v.1. vavvihaya−), 12 7 2 (v.1. vovvthaa-), 80 9 4 'a kind of bird which is supposed to drink only rain-drops'. [=cātaka-(gl.); cf. bappiha- cālaka-, 'a bird supposed to live only on rain-drops, Cuculus melanoleucus' (D. 6 90, H. 4 388 illustrations 1 & 2; Pai. 293). Trivikrama notes vappaa- and vappiha- in the sense of cataka (Tr. 3 4 72, 689 & 690). Cf. vappiha- occurring in this sense in PC.II, III, Yt., vavvihiya- in SR., and vappthaya in Vajjā., bappa at JC. 2 2 1. Cf. G. bappaiyo and Hi. papiha= cātaka, 'the sparrow hawk'.]
1134. Baulliya- 72 7 8 'a doll'.
[=puttalika-(gl.); the relevant passage is - "nam baulliya kamcanaghaḍiya" - 'as though a doll made out of gold'; cf. baulli pañcalika, 'a doll' (D. 6 92; Pai. 258) and bāulli-= putrikä-, kumārī kriḍocitā śālabhaħjikā (Tr. 3 4 72, 113); cf. PSM. baullaya-, baullia-(D)= 'a doll'; PSM. also records baa-(D) in the sense of bala-, sisu from Śaḍbhāṣācandrika. Cf. baullia- occurring in this very sense in Karpūraman. jari, (419) and bhitți-vāullaya- occurring in Vajjā. (68) in the sense of a painting or a doll on a wall'. Cf. M. bahula-, G. baulu-, Kon. bavli 'a doll, a puppet'.]
The word baulli- is a feminine of baullaya-, which appears to be perhaps made up of a base *bāva+ullaya- which is very well attested in MP. and noted by Hemacandra in his Prakrit Grammar (H. 4 429) and by Alsdrof'1.
A Pratibāra king of Mandor, Bauka is known from his inscription dated v.s. 8942.
1135. Bukk- 'to speak, to say, to tell':
bukkia (p.p.) 41 5 4; bukkaa-(p.p.) 65 14 2 (v.1. bukkia-).
[=kathitam. uktam(gl.), The relevant passage at 41 5 4 is avasari sakke bukkiu" - 'at that occasion Indra said'; cf.
Jain Education International
