______________________________________________
[1] Read ṭhakkura.
[2] Sandhi has not been observed here. Read nṛiṇām=ahō.
[3]Hēmādri (Dānakhaṇḍa, Banaras, p. 75) assigns the stanza to Yājñavalkya (sic. Laghu-Śātātapa-smṛiti, verse
150) and quotes (ibid., pp. 82-83) Vasishtha and the Padma Purāṇa interpreting dinakshaya as the day that witnesses the end of two tithis. If Śaka 969 is regarded as current, the Māgha-saṅkrānti day (January 22, 1047 A.D)
witnessed such a phenomenon.
[4] Read svādhyāyikaḥ.
[5] Read bādhā. The intended word may be khashpaḥ.
[6] Better read ºrita-matiḥ.
[7] This is only half of a stanza in Anushṭubh. The first half is sometimes quoted as Śaṅkhaṁ bhadr-āsanaṁ
chhatraṁ var-āśvā vara-vāraṇāḥ. The last foot of the stanza is sometimes quoted as phalaṁ svargaḥ Purandara.
[8] The daṇḍa is superfluous.
[9] Read bimbaṁ.
