c9.43

The king's own chamber was known as Siri-gabbha (J. IV 105; Skt. Srī-garbha) and the royal couch as Siri-sayana (J. III. 264). The prefix Srī denoted the articles for the personal use of the king and was used later also, e.g the king's pavilion Srī-vitāna by Kālidāsa (Vikramorvaśīya) and the royal she-elephant Srī-kareṇu by Baṇa in the Harshacharita.
