1 4 Sanskrit chāyä sukham kuśalam ca vatsa sadā să prasnutastani madhyamā te mātā parisvajya ajñāpayatı putraha pura pratiñatau dvau varau mahārājam jāpayāma | tasyāh me vigñaptı-hārako bhava esa tātasya kārya-lekhah The construction esā sadā for sadā esā would be pieferable I am, however, now inclined to read vacchaldae să instead of vaccha sada esā.
panhudatthanī Cf Utt III 16/17. 19 astv ekena, &c Of Anar. IV 66, Mahānätaka III. 8 (No. 97)

1 10. carāmah Mark the use of the piesent tense in the sense of the optative. If it is used here for the future, as the present sometimes is, the sense is also clear But we should have rather expected carema for carāmah Cf note on dadātı, p 91,1 7 above

16 Sanskrit chāyā distya anumatā asmi āryena The MSS Cu and K read azgāe and E aãe, and so must be rendered into Sanskut as aryayā But Sitā here evidently refers to Rāma's consenting to her accompanying him We should naturally then have the masculine word ajena I have, therefore, emended the reading.
