⁵ Note the poet's eagerness to exhibit his knowledge of the Kāmaśāstra in a verse ascribed to Mayūra (Tripathi, History of Kanauj, p. 121), in which the words aṅga, kuntala, cola, madhyadeśa and kāñcī are used in the description of the king's enjoyment of the earth, conceived as a lady, in two senses; e.g. aṅga refers to the seizure of ‘the body’ [of the lady] as well as of the Aṅga country. Cf. Bhār. Vid., Vol. XV. No. 3, p. 26.
