the death (destruction) of travellers. The logical connection between the two halves of the stanza is not clear. The goddess of the spring season as if apprehends that the travellers will succumb to the exciting influence of the spring season, and the mango-tree wails profusely under the guise of the humming sound of bees. The propriety of the question किं करइ and of the adverb तुरियतुरियं is not clear. The question fee remains unanswered. We expect some such answer as सोयइ व्व or रुयइ व्व or कंदइ व्व or विलवइ व्व. The second half cannot be an answer to the question किं करइ सहयारो. MSS. G and I read पहियाण जियविणासासंकिय व, which is supported by the commentator's explanation, although it disturbs the metre.
637) Hala 311, where the reading in the second quarter is वसंतमासेकल पसराण. The words लंकालयाण, वसंतमासम्मि, आवीयलोहियाणं and पलासाणं are used with a double meaning in each case. जणो पलासाणं बीइ (love-sick) people are afraid of looking at the Palāśa flowers just as they are afraid of looking at the demons. The sight of Paläsa flowers is repugnant to love-sick people. (1) Palasa flowers, (2) demons, eaters of raw flesh (4 raw flesh + eater) ) (अश्नन्ति ) ते पलासा or पलं आसो आहारो जेसिं ते पलासा । Cf. पिशिताशन). लंकाळया (1) resting on i.e. growing or hanging on the branches (1: a branch), (2) residing in, the capital of the demon-king Rāvana. f 1 (1) flourishing in the spring season (or spring month), (2) preying or feasting on fat (1), entrails ( = मन्त्र) and flesh (मास = मांस ) ( वसान्त्रमांसे लब्धप्रसराणाम् )- Weber (1870 Edn.. p. 181) renders: "marching only in search of fat, entrails and blood" (वसंतमासेकल्दपसरणं). आवीयलोहिया (1) आवीया य लोहिया य (कर्मधारय compound), yellowish red, (2) and fààíà (le compound), drinking the blood of their victims., the Genitive is used here for the Ablative according to HS. VIII.3.134. HŚ.VIII 4.53 gives भा and बीह as धात्वादेशs for the root भी. See st. 58. बीह is. to be traced to the Sanskrit form बिमेमि ( = बिहेमि ) with elongation of बि. For the pun on वसंतमास, see stanza 639.
