Sexual Life in Ancient India: A Study in the Comparative History of Indian Culture v1.c6.45

¹ Read nidhanād abhi? K. here also smooths things and has nidhanāntakaḥ. Abhi with the ablat. = “hither from” is found in xii, 8.23 (adhi with ablat. = “from”, v, 55.47). Since now ā with ablat. means “from” and “until”, my proposed emendation perhaps has a good deal to be said for it.
