I have translated the reading pañ*k*â*s*ata*m*, which however is hardly so appropriate as the reading pañ*k*âsta*m*, 'fifty' kârshâpa*n*as. See M. VIII, 2, 97 --p. 32 *add* 88. It is perhaps more advisable to translate '(shall pay) . . . (as a fine),' than to supply the above parentheses. The reading of Nand.'s gloss is doubtful --p. 42, 1. 7 from below, *after* 45 *add* ; Colebrooke, Dig. I, 5, CLXXXV.--37. Y. II, 48.--p. 54 *add* 20, 22. The translation of *s*îrsha by 'fine' rests upon Nand.'s comment--p. 62 *add* Gautama (XVIII, 6) speaks of the appointment of 'one who belongs to the same caste' (Bühler); but the term yonimâtra is ambiguous, and may be referred to 'relatives on the mother's side' as well.--p. 123, note 1, *read* 34-38 and 43-47--p. 131, 17, *read* The next proverb (18)--p. 132, 3, *read* XXXIII--p. 138, 35, *read* XLVII *and* XLVI, 18.--p. 162 *add* 5. Thus Nand. Taken as part of a Dvandva compound, vratâni would mean 'and the Vratas.' See M. XI, 152--p. 185, 3 *and* p. 186, 26 *read* X, 190 *and* X, 90.--p. 190 *read* LIX, Y. M. III, 67--p. 198, 5 *add* 'ekakara' "one who has one hand only", (Nand.), may also mean "with one hand."' See Âpast. I, 1, 4, 21; Gaut. IX, 11.--p. 202, 36. Professor Max Müller points out to me, That the Buddhist Bhikshus do 'wear the marks of an order to which they do not belong'--na vidhivat pravra*g*anti. Viewed in this light, Nand.'s interpretation tends to confirm my own, Cf. Âpast. I, 6,18, 31.
