काव्यमीमांसा (महाकवि राजशेखर - कवि-रहस्य एवं देश-विभाग सटीक)

254 EXPLANATORY NOTES the Kālavibhāga chapter in order to complete the first Adhikaraṇa, and these are irretrievably lost to us just as the other 17 Adhi- karaṇas. This Bhuvanakośa does not seem to be a separate work of Rājaśekhara because he mentions this as a part of the Kāvya- mīmāṁsā, and also because the author is known to have composed only six works as mentioned in the Bālarāmāyaṇa. cf. विद्धि नः षट् प्रबन्धान्। 1–12. Such being the case, the Bhuvana- kośa cannot be included in this list of six works, and it is very improbable that Rājaśekhara should compose an independent work by name Bhuvanakośa in addition to this voluminous work Kāvyamīmāṁsā. The following six works may be taken as his composition: the four dramas, the Kāvyamīmāṁsā and the Haravilāsa Kāvya. For detailed information, see introduction.

Adhyāya XVIII. l. 13. This line is not found in any of the MSS of this work. On the authority of Hemacandra who quoted the whole chapter in the same order in his Kāvyānuśāsanaviveka, this line has been added on to the text. *[l. 14. काष्ठा etc. cf. with this, the division of time in कौटिलीयार्थ- शास्त्र p. 108. Read समेते।] ll. 14–15. This verse is found in the Vāyupurāṇa with slight modifications: काष्ठा निमेषा दश पञ्च चैव त्रिंशच्च काष्ठा गणयेत् कलान्तम्। त्रिंशत्कलश्चैव भवेन्मुहूर्तः तैस्त्रिंशता रात्र्यहनी समेते। chapter 50–169. In the Arthaśāstra the division of time is different:— द्वौ त्रुटौ लवः। द्वौ लवौ निमेषः। पञ्च निमेषाः काष्ठा। त्रिंशत्काष्ठाः कला। चत्वारिंशत्कला नाडिका। द्विनाडुको मुहूर्तः। पञ्चदश मुहूर्तो दिवसो रात्रिश्च। It may be noted that Kauṭilya states five Nimeṣas as equi- valent to one Kāṣṭhā, and eighty Kalās as equivalent to one Muhūrta. But according to Vāyupurāṇa 15 Nimeṣas make one Kāṣṭhā while thirty Kalās make one Muhūrta. ll. 16–25. Compare Arthaśāstra 2. 20. 38 on the subject of देशकालमान। *[l. 21. The Viveka reads वर्धमानसोमशुक्लिमा and वर्धमान सोमकृष्णिमा.]
