Three miles from Dabokh we crossed our own stream, the Berach, and at the village of \[593\] Darauli is a small outlet from this river, which runs into a hollow and forms a \*jhil\*, or lake. There is a highly interesting temple, dedicated to Mandeswar (Siva), on the banks of this stream, the architecture of which attests its antiquity. It is the counterpart in miniature of a celebrated temple, at Chandravati, near Abu, and verifies the traditional axiom, that the architectural rules of past ages were fixed on immutable principles. - [Previous: v3.c43.3](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.tod-1829.v3.c43.3) - [Next: v3.c43.5](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.tod-1829.v3.c43.5) - [Up: v3.c43](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.tod-1829.v3.c43) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.tod-1829.v3.c43.4](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.tod-1829.v3.c43.4) · Pramāṇa
