Siwani Charter of Pravarasena II

Editor: Dániel Balogh.

Identifier: DHARMA_INSSiddham00163.

Hand description:

Halanta consonants are simplified forms of the regular consonants, reduced in size and lowered, normally with a dash above them, but the latter is absent in the incipit. Punctuation marks are double plain daṇḍas at major stops and small marks at minor stops. The latter may be short horizontal dashes (sometimes barely longer than a dot), or very short vertical strokes. Other palaeographic observations: As usual in this script, the consonants ḍa and da are not distinguished in the script and have been read on the basis of context. Subscript ṇ is likewise objectively indistinguishable from subscript n. As Fleet observes, ba occurs in two forms: a regular one with a notched left size and a headmark (e.g. l1, br̥haspati) and a simplified one resembling the archaic form, a plain square (e.g. l17, beṇṇā). The upadhmānīya is used in l3 of the seal, but not elsewhere, even where applicable (e.g. l12, cakkrapāṇeḥ prasādopārjjita). The dental n is used several times in place of anusvāra (e.g. l4 Ansa) or the class nasal (e.g. l33 paribādhān).

Language: Sanskrit.

Repository: Siddham (siddham).

⟨2⟩ -¿v?⟨c⟩atur- F ⬦ -(ca)tur- M. — ⟨2⟩ sa¿ṣ?⟨m⟩r¿a?⟨ā⟩¡Ṭ! F ⬦ samrāṬ M • F emends in a footnote to samrāḍ-, and M likewise to samrājo. I find the latter preferable for standard grammar but prefer not to emend, since I believe that what the composer had in mind here was not a proper compound in the standard sense, but a string of adjectives qualifying Pravarasena, without declensional endings, but including the in-itself complete phrase phrase vākāṭakānām mahārāja. Thus, in standard grammar, his intent would be expressed by samrājo vākāṭakānāṁ mahārājasya or samrāḍ-vākāṭaka-mahārāja-.

⟨4⟩ -suparituṣṭa • Here, su may be a correction, possibly from pa.

⟨7⟩ -dauhitrasya(~?) F ⬦ -dauhitrasya M • F shows the punctuation mark as clear and remarks that it is unnecessary. It is not visible at all in the estampages and not read by M, whereas subsequent punctuation marks (likewise dismissed as unnecessary by both Fleet and M) are clearly discernible. Since F alone had access to the originals, I accept his testimony that this punctuation mark is present.

⟨15⟩ -sarvva- F ⬦ -sarva- M.

⟨18⟩ -bhāge F ⬦ -bh¿ā?⟨o⟩ge M • The word bhāga as a territorial division is used in the Pattan Charter of Pravarasena II, while bhoga appears in the Dudia Charter of Pravarasena II. — ⟨18⟩ phālgu⟨19⟩¿ṇ?⟨n⟩a- F ⬦ phālgu⟨19⟩na- M.

⟨22⟩ pavarajjavāṭakasya F ⬦ pravarajjavāṭakasya M.

⟨23⟩ pūrvveṇa M ⬦ purvveṇa F • Fleet does not emend, so this is probably a typo in his edition. — ⟨23⟩ -sīmā- M ⬦ -simā- F • Fleet does not emend, so this is probably a typo in his edition. — ⟨23⟩ karañjaviraka- • Fleet tentatively offers the alternative reading karañjaciraka-. This cannot be excluded altogether, but does not seem likely. — ⟨23⟩ -santakā(ḥ) • The visarga is not visible in the estampage, but both previous editors show it.

⟨24⟩ sarvvāddhyakṣa F ⬦ sarvvādhyakṣa M. — ⟨24⟩ -n¿a?⟨i⟩yuktāḥ F ⬦ -niyuktāḥ M. — ⟨24⟩ -kulaputrādhikr̥tāḥ F ⬦ -kulaputrādhikr̥tā M.

⟨26⟩ -v⟦r⟧ivr̥⟨d⟩dhaye M ⬦ -v⟦r̥⟧⟨⟨ri⟩⟩vr̥⟨d⟩dhaye F.

⟨27⟩ -sthāne~ F ⬦ -sthāne M • As both F and M note, atisr̥ṣṭaḥ or an equivalent is missing after this word. In fact, related grants typically have apūrvva-datyā udaka-pūrvvam atisr̥ṣṭaḥ. This might be a case of eyeskip omission where instead of continuing with apūrvva, the scribe jumped to abhaṭa-. Compare the omission in line 37.

⟨29⟩ -¡klinva!- ⬦ -¿tlinva?⟨klinna⟩- F; -kli¿v?⟨nn⟩a- M • M’s reading is probably a typo and he did, in fact, read klinva. — ⟨29⟩ -khanakaḥ(~) F ⬦ -khanakaḥ M • F prints the punctuation mark as clear (and dismissing it as superfluous). In the estampage, there seem to be four dots here, of which the leftmost two must be a visarga, although the upper one of the two is not straight above, but to the right of the lower. The fourth dot is probably a random surface defect, while the third may be a very short punctuation dash.

⟨33⟩ k¿a?⟨u⟩ryyāt F ⬦ kuryyāt M.

⟨35⟩ dharm(m)ādhikara⟨36⟩ṇe • According to Mirashi’s note, other cognates plates generally have dharmmādara-karaṇe here. In fact it seems that the two alternatives are attested in roughly equal numbers.

⟨37⟩ ¡Eṣyantat!- ⬦ Eṣya{nta}t- F M • In this formula, the spelling of the non-standard word is generally Eṣyatat- in related grants. It may be a local non-standard future participle or a persistent spelling mistake that had crept into the chancellery’s template. I wonder if the original composer’s intent may have been Eṣyat-tat- rather than Eṣyat-. In the Dudia Charter of Pravarasena II, the ta of Eṣyatat- is a subsequent scribal insertion, which clearly shows that it was considered essential by a contemporary editor. — ⟨37⟩ pramāṇ¿i?⟨ī⟩- F ⬦ pramāṇī- M.

Commentary

The incipit comprises a block at the top left coner: dr̥ṣṭam is roughly in line with (very slightly above) l1 of the body text, while siddham is in line with the space between l1 and l2. The daṇḍas are at the same level as dr̥ṣṭam, but were probably meant to end and delimit this block as a whole. The first line of the text proper thus begins with an indent of about 3 character widths.

Bibliography

First published (with an eye copy, a partially accurate Devanagari transcript based on an eye copy, and an English translation) by James Prinsep (1836, pp. 726–731). Edited from the original plates by John Faithfull Fleet (1888, pp. 243–249, № 56), with inked estampages and translation. Re-edited by Vasudev Vishnu Mirashi (1963, pp. 28–32, № 7) from Fleet’s estampages, with a new translation. The present edition is based on a collation of Fleet’s and Mirashi’s editions with Fleet’s estampages.¹

<p>Halanta consonants are simplified forms of the regular consonants, reduced in size and lowered, normally with a dash above them, but the latter is absent in the incipit. Punctuation marks are double plain daṇḍas at major stops and small marks at minor stops. The latter may be short horizontal dashes (sometimes barely longer than a dot), or very short vertical strokes. Other palaeographic observations: As usual in this script, the consonants ḍa and da are not distinguished in the script and have been read on the basis of context. Subscript ṇ is likewise objectively indistinguishable from subscript n. As Fleet observes, ba occurs in two forms: a regular one with a notched left size and a headmark (e.g. l1, br̥haspati) and a simplified one resembling the archaic form, a plain square (e.g. l17, beṇṇā). The upadhmānīya is used in l3 of the seal, but not elsewhere, even where applicable (e.g. l12, cakkrapāṇeḥ prasādopārjjita). The dental n is used several times in place of anusvāra (e.g. l4 Ansa) or the class nasal (e.g. l33 paribādhān).</p>

<note>F emends in a footnote to <foreign>samrāḍ-</foreign>, and M likewise to <foreign>samrājo</foreign>. I find the latter preferable for standard grammar but prefer not to emend, since I believe that what the composer had in mind here was not a proper compound in the standard sense, but a string of adjectives qualifying Pravarasena, without declensional endings, but including the in-itself complete phrase phrase <foreign>vākāṭakānām mahārāja</foreign>. Thus, in standard grammar, his intent would be expressed by <foreign>samrājo vākāṭakānāṁ mahārājasya</foreign> or <foreign>samrāḍ-vākāṭaka-mahārāja-</foreign>.</note>

<note>F shows the punctuation mark as clear and remarks that it is unnecessary.

<note>F prints the punctuation mark as clear (and dismissing it as superfluous). In the estampage, there seem to be four dots here, of which the leftmost two must be a <foreign>visarga</foreign>, although the upper one of the two is not straight above, but to the right of the lower.

<note>In this formula, the spelling of the non-standard word is generally <foreign>Eṣyatat-</foreign> in related grants. It may be a local non-standard future participle or a persistent spelling mistake that had crept into the chancellery's template. I wonder if the original composer's intent may have been <foreign>Eṣyat-tat-</foreign> rather than <foreign>Eṣyat-</foreign>. In the <ref target="DHARMA_INSSiddham00167.xml">Dudia Charter of Pravarasena II</ref>, the <foreign>ta</foreign> of <foreign>Eṣyatat-</foreign> is a subsequent scribal insertion, which clearly shows that it was considered essential by a contemporary editor.</note>
