page 732 note 2 I should not contend that this is a final statement of the case. Professor Jacobi's observation that some of the chapters of the Tantrākhyāyika itself are in the colophons called tantra must be allowed its due weight. Then, again, Dr. Hertel's new word tantradhāra (Vienna Oriental Journal, xx, p. 87Google Scholar) reminds us of sūtradhūra. Is it possible that as a literary term tantra denoted originally a collection of sūtras? If so, Professor Oldenberg's rendering of Pañcatantra (Die Litteratur des alten Indien, p. 230Google Scholar) by ‘fünffache Gewebe’ will find its due justification.
