43. J. B. D. वोक्ष्य ; I. रक्ष or रक्षा in this line, and रिष्ट in the following line; *Suprabhedāgama* (XXX. 3) reads रिक्षा; *Vāstuvidyā* (I. 5) has लिक्षा (long) ; so also the *Matsya-Purāṇa* (258, 18) and the *Siddhānta-śiromaṇi* (p. 52): but the *Bṛihat-Saṁhitā* (58, 12) has लिक्ष (short). But from the reading रिष्टे for लिक्षे, the *Mānasāra* seems to have used the short form लिक्ष ; the gender of the word remains uncertain from these uses. In dictionaries it is used in the feminine gender.
