Mss. of the Mit. who quote this verse (8[vo]) ed. p. 43a, 1. 1; 4[to]) ed. vyaº fol. 12a, 1. 13) read it apaugaṇḍa and repeat it in the same form immediately afterwards (1. 4. and 1. 14), while the Vīramitrodaya fol. 66a, 1. 1 reads apogaṇḍa. Comp. also the Mit. 8[vo]) ed. p. 74, 1. 9, 4[to]) ed. vyaº fol. 20a, 1. 15. E. a neg. and pīgaṇḍa.
