⁸⁶⁵ केचित्तु होरां प्रथमा भप्स्य वाञ्छन्ति लाभाधिपतेर्द्वितीयाम्। द्रेष्काणसंज्ञामपि वर्णयन्ति स्वद्वादशैकादशराशिपानम्॥ बृहज्जातक I. 12, उत्पल quotes on this a verse of यवनेश्वर 'आद्या तु होरा भवनस्य पत्युरेकादश क्षेत्रपतेर्द्वितीया । स्वद्वादशैकादशराशिपानां द्रेष्काणसंज्ञा क्रमक्षश्चयोच॥'. This verse occurs in the यवनजातक of स्फुर्जिध्वज on folio 2. It would be noticed that one पाद is the same in both बृहज्जा० and यवनजातक. In the यवनजातक of स्फुर्जिध्वज (Nepal ms.) the 24 horās of the 12 rāśis are described at length in about 48 rather poetic verses and it winds up the description with the words 'एतास्तु होरा यवनैर्निरुक्तास्त्रिंशत्सद्द्द्वादशभिश्चतस्रः (१)॥' (folio 9.)
