the shrine sacred to him ; and after a time, he obtained beatification. 

 As he had done so much benefit to the country, in the embankment of 

 the river he was called Cari Canda Cholan. 



APPENDIX. 



The Chola rajas were so called because of their being of the solar 

 race. (The derivation of Chola, from Surya, is not clear.) 



Uttunga Cholan; Kulottunga Cholan ; Tirumudi Cholan ; Aruntap a 

 Cholan ; Rajendra Cholan ; Manunithi Cholan ; Ala peranta Cholan ; 

 Vara-guna Cholan ; Ala peranta Cholan ; Ariloru kadamai kondai Cho- 

 lan ; Anatana Cholan ; Cadu-vetti Cholan. 



Another list of the Chola princes is given, with the explanation of the 

 names ; and shewing three different names sometimes given to the same 

 individual. The period of reign, in all, is too great. There were in all 

 23 kings of this race it is said. After Cari Cara Chola the race

Section 3. — Abridged account of Is vara, Vishnu and Brahma. 



This paper contains a description of the divisions, and residents, with- 

 in the regions of Vaiconfha and Kailasa, similar or the same, (differ- 

 ence of language being excepted,) to the Tamil manuscript translated

 being the eyes of Siva ; by reason of which darkness covered the earth;
