152 EXPLANATORY NOTES *[ l. 4. प्राणानामनिलेन (अभिज्ञानशाकुन्तल VII. 12.) ] l. 4. In this verse Kālidāsa describes the sages practising penance on the mount Hemakūṭa situated in the land of Kimpu- ruṣavarṣa which could not conceivably be seen by him from Bhāratavarṣa (see p. 92 of this work). *[ l. 8. अनेन सार्ध (रघुवंश.
