Udyotana's teacher Virabhadra; and the following verse names his father Vateśvara who was a Ksatriya and became a Kşamāśramana." I was very glad to see that the gatha as found in the old palm-leaf manuscript of Jesalmere argeed with my imaginary emendation and with meaning deducible from it.
Just now Shri KANTIVIJAYAJI Maharaj has been able to get the photographs of Jesalmere copy. I take this opportunity of thanking him for the generosity which he has shown by providing me, at the earliest opportunity, with its photographed copy from which I have also been able to find out a gäthä relating to Jābalipura and Vatsarājaits King. I will discuss the
utility of this gātha at a proper place in another article. 36. "P" has not got this whole gatha. 37. The following first half is found in "P" in place of this :
राया [य] खत्तियाणं वसे जाओ वडेसरो नाम । 38. The name of this historically important place is altogether missing in "P". 39. These four göthās are not to be found in "P".. 40. This is also missing in "P".
