139 Ad rasāyanādhikāra 77. 140 Kāmaratna 526. 141 NCC VII, 20. 142 See: Rasaśāstra texts. 143 See: Rasaśāstra texts. 144 NCC VII, 24 and 378. STMI 44. Cat. BHU Nrs. 60 and 61. Cat. Bikaner Nr. 1404. CBORI XVI, 1, Nrs. 86–89. Additional MS: Bodleian d.742(1) (see D. Wujastyk, 1990: 97). The title is mentioned in one of the introductory verses (1.2). Edition: kāyastha caṇḍakṛto jvaratimirabhāskaraḥ,... śrīnānakacandra vaidya śāstriṇā śabdārtha bodhinī bhāṣā ṭīkayā samalaṅkṛtaḥ, Motīlāl Banārsīdās, Lavapura 1936/37. 145 The printed text contains interpolated verses on the pulse (7–10) and some prose on the subject of auscultation (27–31), both containing views derived from western medicine. 146 Compare on these fevers: Bhāvaprakāśa, cikitsā 1.473–491; Kāśyapasamhitā, viśeṣakalpādhyāya (27–31), both containing views derived from western medicine. (Bhāvaprakāśa, *Madhukośa* ad Mādhavanidāna 2.18–23 (see the long quotation from the Bhālukitantra); Nārāyaṇa's Jvaranirṇaya 1.622–636; Vallabhabhaṭṭa's commentary ad Śārṅgadhara's Triśatī 69; Vaṅgasena, jvara 353–391; Yogaratnākara 612. See also G.J. Meulenbeld (1974): 165–172. 147 Cāmuṇḍa considers the fevers called hataujas and saṃnyāsa to be varieties of abhinyāsa. See on abhinyāsa: G.J. Meulenbeld (1974): 164–165. 148 Compare on this series of fevers: Bhāvaprakāśa, cikitsā 1.492–505; Nārāyaṇa's Jvaranirṇaya 4.119–138; Śārṅgadhara's Triśatī 70–171; Yogaratnākara 160–162. See also G.J. Meulenbeld (1974): 166–172. 149 Compare on these fevers: Bhāvaprakāśa, cikitsā 1.510–522; Nārāyaṇa's Jvaranirṇaya 4.102–115; Śārṅgadhara's Triśatī 172–188. The verses of these texts describing this series are almost identical with those of the Jvaratimirabhāskara. See also G.J. Meulenbeld (1974): 166–172. No studies trying to identify all the fevers mentioned are known to me; apart from types of malaria, one should take into consideration, for example, kala-azar, dengue, sand-fly fever, relapsing fever, forms of typhus, typhoid, etc. (see J. Megaw, 1946). 150 The larger part of the verses on sughoraka appear to have been added, since their numbering is wrong (a series of numbers occurs twice in this chapter). 151 These two fevers are also mentioned in Soḍhala's Gadanigraha and Śrīkaṇṭha's Hitopadeśa. 152 These verses are also found in Ḍalhaṇa's comment ad Su.U.39.42. 153 Taken from Su.U.39.43–45ab. 154 Verses 46cd–48ab are taken from A.S.Ni.2.98cd–100ab. 155 Kālajvara arises at the time of death. 156 This kālajvara is different from that mentioned in the preceding chapter. Fevers called after the four varṇas are also described in the Hārītasamhitā. 157 Thirst (tṛṣā) is said to be its wife, respiratory disorders and cough its sons, etc. 158 The rasayogas from the Jvaratimirabhāskara are not found in Cāmuṇḍa's Rasasaṃketakalikā, śitabhañjirasa excepted (5.30–34ab = Rasasaṃketakalikā 4.2–7). 159 See, e.g., 3.22–26; 7.306–307 and 341–342; 8.11–12ab and 12cd–15; 9.40–42, 43–48, 49–50, 72–73, 74–78, and 79–83; 10.19–21, 22, 52cd–55ab; 13.71–75 and 76–81ab; 14.90–91 and 97cd–98; 15.26cd–30. Verses 9.79–83 contain a Hanumatstotra against tṛtīyaka fever. 160 1.74 (Garga); 7.290 (Caraka); 7.64 (Suśruta); 9.37 (Vṛddhasuśruta). Some more sources are indicated in the headings of groups of verses (taken from the manuscripts or added by the editor?): Bhāluki (9.14–15), Hārīta (9.57cd-59), Lakṣmaṇotsava (11.14–15), Yogaratnākara (7.207–208), granthāntara (7.317–318ab and 333–347ab). According to the NCC (VII, 378) the Jvaraparājaya is quoted; this cannot be correct since this work (by Jayaratna) dates from the beginning of the seventeenth century.
