Extract

I am grateful to the Society for letting me see the above paper before publication and giving me space for a few comments. Circumstances at the moment debar me from access to libraries; and, as it is also hard to answer briefly arguments depending on assumptions which appear to me unwarranted by the available evidence, this note may be found incomplete.

page 190 note 1 Dr. Tarn talks of Sauvīra-Sindhu; except where metrical needs require this order, it is usually found as Sindhu-Sauvīra. In his analogy Sauvīra should be Hungary, not Austria.

page 192 note 1 This would possibly explain how Buddhaghosa came to use a different recension for part of the text.

page 192 note 2 Writing from memory, I can only quote Edgerton on the k-suffixes of Indo-Iranian, , in JAOS., xxxiGoogle Scholar, which does not include classical Sanskrit, and Bloomfield on the diminutive pronouns of Jaina Sanskrit in Indian Studies in Honour of C. M. Lanman. Wackernagel's grammar only deals with it so far as affixed to compounds. See also Pischel ss. 598, and Bloch, , L'Indo-Aryen, p. 164Google Scholar.

page 193 note 1 There is a passage (Demiéville, p. 130, n. 1) which is very closely related to the Mahāvibhāṣā and suggests a connection with the Sarvāstivādins, whose literature is in Sanskrit.
