N.B.-Jinaprabha's mention of Kavidarpana (s. v. 35 below) first drew my attention to that work. I am publishing below the definitions which he has quoted in his commentary of the Ajitaśāntistava. See Introduction Sect. IV. I had published them at the end of my edition of Kavidarpana in the Annals BORI., 1936. Here, I am also giving the text of the Stava for verification, generally following W. Schubring, who has critically edited it at ZII, 1923, pp. 178 to 203; but occasionally, I have adopted, for metrical reasons, variants given in the foot-notes. A few explanatory notes are added at the end of each stanza. Figures 3, 4, 5 and 6 indicate respectively a Trimātra, Caturmātra, Pañcamātra and Şaņmātra Gana. KD = Kavidarpaņa; S = A long letter; I = A short letter.
