किं चान्यत् and translates “nothing else that exists in this Kalpa bears comparison with the learned Vijñânesvara.” To mean “nothing else,” किं चान्यत् must be किमप्यन्यत् ; and in this construction पण्डितो, the nominative, has no verb, अन्यत् being taken as the nominative to the verb भजते. Again, it will not do to say “nothing that exists in this Kalpa bears comparison,” &c., for one-half of this Kalpa only has passed away; the other half still remains, and what it will produce but \*has not yet produced\* cannot be spoken of as कल्पस्थम् or “existing in the Kalpa.” The only proper reading with a slight alteration is that of the Bombay lithographed edition, which he has given in a footnote and which is किंवान्यदन्योपमामाकल्पं. Instead of वा, there must be चा here. And this is the reading of a manuscript of the Mitâksharâ, dated Samvat 1535 and S'aka 1401, purchased by me about ten years ago for the Bombay Government. The reading is to be translated as in the text.
