8 The discovery that Ravigupta’s *Siddhasāra* was one of Mādhava’s sources we owe to R.E. Emmerick (see his review of translation c of the *Mādhavanidāna*). The verses from the *Siddhasāra* which were incorporated in the *Mādhavanidāna* (their number is twenty-eight) are indicated in R.E. Emmerick’s critical edition of the Sanskrit text of the *Siddhasāra*. Verses taken from Ravigupta’s work are: *Mādhavanidāna* 2.1–2 and 26; 3.6 and 8; 5.1 and 24ab; 6.1; 10.1; 15.1; 18.1; 21.1; 28.1 and 5; 42.1 and 5; 46.1; 49.23cd and 24; 52.1; 59.4; 64.1; 67.1–3ab and 4ab; 69.1 and 16–18.
