On the whole it seems most probable that the word connotes no more than ‘king’ as opposed to ‘prince.’ - [Previous: v1.c3.315](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v1.c3.315) - [Next: v1.c3.317](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v1.c3.317) - [Up: v1.c3](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v1.c3) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v1.c3.316](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v1.c3.316) · Pramāṇa
