etc. In that case the rise of this reduplicative pattern of jingling word-formation can be dated prior to the eleventh century. We have already evidence of early occurrence of another reduplicative type from a poem inscribed on a stone slab from Dhar in Malwa, which offers two instances of the jingle-formation one with v- (i.e.b-), 431-931 and another with s-, मंडण3).3 Compare also occurring at p. 172, st. 596 of the
Doghaṭṭi.
At 128, 16 is perhaps a corruption of a cavern, a hollow', as can be seen from the following Apabhramsa version of the Gatha at 6, 67, occurring at Siddhahema 8, 4, 422:
जिवँ सुपुरिस तिवँ घघलइँ, जिव नइ तिवँ वलणा हूँ । जिवँ डुगर तिवँ कोट्टर हूँ, हिआ विसूरहि काइँ ॥
Incidentally the context in which the Gatha referred to above, occurs fully bears out my contention that means and
not quarrel,' which is but a corruption.4 The Gathā is meant to corroborate the remarks that it is the distingnished persons who are specially subject to calamaties (गरूयाण चिय विवयाओ हुति).
विडय at 84, 30 and वेड्डय in the compound सुत्तवेड्डय at 116.20 seem to mean 'simulation' (N).
For a discussion of fag felt distasteful or disgusting' (underlying feat, the correct form for eft at 49, 13) and the interpretation of the relevant Apabhramśa verse see further in the present collection.
