page 205 note 1 I am not sure that this definition would hold in every case.

page 206 note 1 I venture to differ from Professor Oltramare on some points of little importance, p. 10: As well said, kāma is sexual desire; there is “desire” in the rūpadhātu, as far as I know. p. 27, note: I think that the Śālistambasūtra has the canonic phraseology, p. 28: But there is a jīvitendriya, at least in the latter scholastic, p. 41: I do not see how avidyā acquired a new value (and a cosmic one) from the fact that it came to be looked upon as the ignorance of the nairātmya. p. 41, note: Lefmann follows Rājendralāl, but the Tibetan translation has pratyayebhiç ca ( = co), and confirms Professor Oltramare's scepticism. p. 46: Is not Buddhaghoṣa to be understood according to Śikṣāsamuccaya, p. 227, 11?—As concerns Pāli references, it seems that the true light came recently from Cambridge (Mass.): to give up the notation by sūtras, vaggas, samyuttas, sub-vaggas, etc., would be helpful to the reader and very agreeable to our excellent friend Professor Lanman.
