This edition, has seventy-two chapters, arranged slightly differently from those in ed. a (four chapters on jvara, separate chapters on jvarātisāra and atisāra), omits those on sneha, etc.; moreover, some verses are missing here and there. c sārtha vṛndamādhava athavā siddhayoga, edited with Marāṭhī translation by Datto Ballāḷa Borkar, Yaśavant Press, Poona 1922 [BL.14043.ccc.7; IO.San.D.262(a, b)]. References are to ed. a. The name of the author (Vṛnda) and the title of his work (Siddhayoga) are mentioned in the second verse and the very last one. The chapter colophons mention Vṛndamādhava as an alternative title. 2 Prose is found at 1.227; between 30.25 and 26; between 34.1 and 2, 8 and 9, 20 and 21; at the end of 48; between 78.1 and 2. 3 It is remarkable that Vṛnda does not refer to the Mādhavacikitsā. 4 These remarks are called prastāvavākya. 5 These topics include the physician and his patient, weights and measures, etc. 6 E.g., 1.24–25ab (a characterization of fever); 3.14–15 (on āma- and nirāmātisāra) and 65 (on pravāhikā); 22.34 (a definition of kubja). 7 The Mādhavacikitsā also has a separate chapter on śophodara (= śothodara). Cakrapāṇidatta rejected this arrangement in his Cakradatta (see Niścala ad udara 55–56). 8 Āgantuvaraṇa corresponds to sadyovraṇa of the Mādhavanidāna. 9 Yoniroga corresponds to yonivyāpad of the Mādhavanidāna. 10 Strīroga includes mūḍhagarbha, sūtīkāroga, stanaroga and stanyaduṣṭi of the Mādhavanidāna. 11 Siddhayoga 64.37. 12 The differences in the arrangement of the chapters between the Mādhavanidāna and the Siddhayoga are not due to the editors, but reflect, at least partly, an old tradition, as appears from remarks in the commentary (see the introductory comments to chapters 2 and 27). 13 See the commentary ad Siddhayoga 57.8cd–9 on these omissions.
