² . . . . . *atra parameśvareṇa tuṣāra-śailodbhuvo durgāyā gṛhītaḥkaraḥ*, p. 101 of the Nirṇayasāgara Ed., translated by Bühler as ‘Here the supreme lord (Harṣa) took tribute from the land in the snowy mouatains, that is difficult of access’ (i.e., Nepal); see *IA*, Vol. IX, pp. 40-41. But see *Le Népal*, Vol. II, pp. 143-44; Lévi takes the terms *tuṣāra* to be identical with *Tukhāra*, and translates it as : ‘(Harṣa) received taxes from the mountains and inaccessible land where lived the Tukhāras (=Turks in the N. W. of India).’
