† So we have probably to understand Anquetil's *Amrat Lankoul*, since he has also another form, *Mrat Lankoun*; instead of, *id est* '*halitus mortis*,' we ought to read '*salitus mortis*.' [See now *I. St.*, ix. 21–23; according to this it is doubtful whether the name ought not to be written *Mṛityuláṅgúla* (?). An Upanishad named *Mṛityulaṅghana* is mentioned by Bühler, *Cat. of MSS. from Guj.*, i. 120; a *Mṛityuláṅgúla*, however, appears as 82d Upanishad in the *Catalogue of Paṇḍit Rádhákṛishṇa's* library. Finally, Burnell, in publishing the text in the *Indian Antiquary*, ii. 266, gives the form *Mṛityuláṅgala*.]
