LEXICOGRAPHICAL APPENDIX The following list of words and meanings occurring in the Vāsavadattā, which the St. Petersburg Sanskrit dictionaries either omit altogether¹ or cite only from native lexicographers, is condensed from my ‘Lexicographical Addenda to the St. Petersburg Lexicons from the Vāsavadattā of Subandhu’ (ZDMG. 60. 355–368), and is, at the same time, supple- mented by the material from the Madras edition of 1862 (which was then unknown to me) and the Srirangam edition of 1906–1908, which appeared subsequently to the study just mentioned.² The Hall, Madras, and Srirangam texts are here denoted by the letters H, M, and S respectively, but the latter two are cited only when they present words or meanings not found in the edition of Hall. An asterisk () prefixed to a word or meaning denotes that the St. Petersburg dictionaries cite only from Sanskrit lexicographers, and a small circle (°) similarly prefixed implies that the word or meaning in question is entirely omitted by the St. Petersburg lexicons. The numbers within the parentheses refer to pages and lines respectively of the editions employed. a *a* (H 113, 1): Viṣṇu.³ aṃśuka (M 67, 6; S 212, 1): °ray, beam of light. ¹ It should be noted in this connexion that a complete index to the Vāsavadattā was prepared by Aufrecht and placed for a time at the disposal of Böhtlingk, who excerpted from it what he deemed most important for his dictionary (Sanskrit- Wörterbuch in kürzerer Fassung, 5. Introd., p. 1, St. Petersburg, 1884). ² Similar lists of words and meanings supplementary to those given in the St. Peters- burg lexicons have recently been prepared by Meyer for the Kuṭṭanīmata and Samaya- mātṛkā (in his Altindische Schelmenbücher, 2. 151–156, Leipzig, 1903), by Schmidt for Appayyadīkṣita’s Kuvalayānandakārikā in his translation of the work (p. 147, Leipzig, 1907), by Jahn for the Saurapurāṇa (Das Saurapurāṇa, pp. 194–195, Strassburg, 1908), by Schmidt and Hertel for Amitagati’s Subhāṣitasandōha (ZDMG. 59. 266–267), by Schmidt for Rāma’s Manmathōnmāthana (ZDMG. 63. 411), by Oster for the Bhōjaprabandha (in his Die Rezensionen des Bhojaprabandha, pp. 15–17, Darmstadt, 1911), by myself for Rājaśēkhara’s Viddhaśālabhañjikā (JAOS. 27. 7), and by Hertel for Hemacandra’s Pariśiṣṭaparvan (ZDMG. 62. 361–369) and the Pañcatantra (Pañcatantra, ed. Hertel, pp. 291–295, Cambridge, Mass., 1908). By far the most important collection in the present connexion, however, is Thomas’s ‘Two Lists of Words from Bāṇa’s Harṣacarita,’ in JRAS. 1899, pp. 485–517, a list closely analogous to the one here presented from the Vāsavadattā. A similar study of the lexicography of Bāṇa’s Kādambarī is still a desideratum. ³ Professor Otto Franke (card of Oct. 14, 1906) kindly calls my attention to Bhagavadgīta, 10. 33, where Kṛṣṇa (Viṣṇu) says: akṣarāṇām akārō ’smi, ‘of letters I am the A.’
