VII 18, where the phrase kalarudrānale occurs, and which the commentator Laksmana Sūrı explains as pralayūgnau Cf also kālāgnindra in Băl II, 62, VII, 30, IX 48/49 For fire at the end of a kalpa see Visnu I 3 1. 10 rāšībhūtah, &c Cf.

Page 54, 1 6 Verse 30 This verse is quoted in the commentary to Karyap. VII 7 to illustrate bhagna-prakrama As demanded by the two respective thoughts in the first half of the verse pādopasangrahanāya ought to piecede abhinava-dar pa-ksamāya karmane Cf. a similar idea in Utt V. 26 1. 13. satyam, &c Repeated in Utt V. 8/9 1. 16. gandha-dvipendrao Cf. for the last half of the verse Māl V. 32.
