from the point of view of the s i tua t ion . Further, the
meaning moving o r roaming around f o r 'bhramal i s a lso not
f i t t i n g ; for, in t h a t case the fur ther usage of the term
'samsaruay' would be i r r e l i van t and redundant.
A convincingly be t t e r reading, i n t h i s context, would
be 'samsamana G r a m ~ i t u ~ ' , as suggested by the edi tor . We
are supported fur ther by the coma. Clhlh on t h i s point. I t

I t would mean being pained o r t i r ed by the fatigue o r
labour s t r a in o r exhaurssion o r t o i l ed etc. and t h a t fatigue
could occure due t o the repeatedly f a l l i ng on the g m
while trying t o move.
I t i s obvious tha t one would be t i r ed due t o the s t r a in
while moving, which i s the case with the young bird. Thus the
reading of Bh&u. is not proper. I t may be in teres t ing t o note /
