The portion given within brackets in N.S.P. (as here) is also not found in A.T.A.

The portion within brackets (which is not found in A.T.A.) is however found in the second Adyar MS. No. 73355 of the Avaloka. (No. 1755 in vol. V of the D.C. of the Kāvya MSS.) This second MS. gives in some places readings different from those given in the N.S.P. edition. Instead of nāmabhedaḥ of the N.S.P., this reads nānā bhedāḥ, which seems to be better.
↩ -
The portion within brackets is to be taken as a later interpolation, as these two verses are found in Kṣemendra’s Bṛhatkathāmañjarī, which contains readings slightly different from the ones given in the N.S.P.
Instead of the readings found in ṭhe Bṛhatkathāmañjarī (N.S.P., 1931, page 24) (as given in this edition within brackets) as saptāhāt, yogānande, dhṛto and rājye, the DR of the N.S.P. gives respectively sahasā, yogānandayaśaśśeṣe (compound form), kṛto, and rājā.
↩ -
The two sentences rāmāyaṇokta-, etc. are found in the second Adyar MS. of the Avaloka. The DR of the N.S.P. reads, instead of these, as śrīrāmāyaṇoktaṃ rāmakathādi jñeyam.
↩ -
vastuvibhāgo nāma is missing in N.S.P. The expressions Daśarūpāvaloka and Daśarūpakāvaloka are both correct, as the basic text is known as the Daśarūpa and the Daśarūpaka, mentioned by Dhanaṃjaya himself. See the Daśarūpaka I.2, and IV.87, and III.76.
↩ -
M.G.T. and T.MS. read paricchedaḥ. Gr.MS. reads prakāśaḥ.
