The Purana Text of the Dynasties of the Kali Age c4.s8.23

c4.s8.23

³¹ In dVā adau, altered to ādau; bVā ādau : mVā °sūnur [atrunur] aṣṭau. ³² Sic, showing that the preceding plurals are probably wrong, through misreading aṣṭau as applying to tanaya instead of as years. The line should probably be— Kulāla-tanayaś c=âṣṭau bhoktā vai Bandhupālitaḥ. ³³ Compare l. 3 of Mt version. There seems to be some metathesis. ³⁴ Ca°a'klVā read daśamānindrapālitaḥ; a'a'fmVā daśa°; bdVā daśamānind° (altered in d to daśanānind°); jVā daśamānandrapālitā. • Bd bhavitā c=Endrapālitaḥ, which suggests that Vā reading should be daśa bhāv=Indrapālitaḥ, and I have emended it so: but it might also be daś-abdān Indra° as suggested in CVā. ³⁶ Actually carṣasamāsv, no doubt for Daśarathas tv (see l. 4 of Mt), and I have emended it so, since Vṣ agrees in this name and places him after Suyaśas (see note ³⁹): cdVṣ Dāśaratha; bVṣ Daśaratna. Bh omits him. Three of his records are extant, see Lüders' List of Brāhmī Inscriptions, nos. 951-6, in Epig. Ind. x, Appendix. ³⁶ Cf. note ⁹. Samprati is the Sanskrit form of Pali Sampaḍi. Sampaḍi was Kunāla's son (Divyāvadana, p. 430), and was established in the kingdom (id. p. 433, where his descendants are named). See SBE, xxii, 290 note, for Samprati. Vṣ, Bh place a king Saṅgata here, which is no doubt another reading of the same name; dBh Saṃyuta, an easy misreading of Saṃprata. Bh adds ‘son of Suyaśas’, Suyaśaḥsutaḥ. ³⁷ First Śāliyuṅkaḥ, then corrected to °śūkaḥ. Vṣ, Bh corroborate. Bb, cdkVṣ Śāliśūka; Vṣ genly, sBh °śuka ; jVṣ °śmūka ; bVṣ °śulla : lVṣ Śālaśūka. Bh genly Śāliśūkas tatas tasya; jBh °kas tu Suyaśaḥ, where Suyaśaḥ is meant for a genitive. ³⁴ Actually varṣaṇi; see Appendix I, § 1. ³⁹ In bVā Dacav°. Vṣ, Bh Somaśarman. ⁴⁰ So Bd. Vṣ, Bh Śatadhanvan; kBh Sata°; hBh Śāta°; deVṣ Śaśa° : bVṣ Śatadharman; qBh †śatayitvā. Vā Śatadharaś. ⁴¹ So Vā. Bd merely c=api. ⁴² So Bd. Vṣ, Bh agree; cBh Ūhad°. Vā Vṛhadaśvaś, but has correct name Bṛhadratha in p. 31, l. 1 : mVā omits ca. ⁴³ Sic. ⁴⁴ In dVā sama; bVā samu.
