Karnali and the Anin, within the mountains, exceeding the' Jumna or 



Ganges. 



It is probable though unascertained that the Painomchu and Monas, 

 in addition to the rivers above given, have transhemalayan sources, and 

 are identical respectively with the Pa or Nai-chu and the Monchu of 

 Klaproth, whilst his Kongbong is, most likely, the Subhansri, and his 

 petit Tchembo, the Dihong ; which last stream, or the Lohit, must be 

 identified apparently with the Sanpu vel Brahmaputra. Permanand, 

 who accompanied Wilcox and Burlton, and explored further than either 

 of them, thinks the Lohit is the Sanpu : Major Hannay contends for 

 the Dihong, which he says is properly called Dhang, a word almost 

 the same with Dzang whence, with the affix po, we derive Sanpu. The 

 great river is styled Dzang-po, recte Tsang-po ; that is, of or belonging 

 to Tsang, which is the western half of the central province of Tibet. 



It seems possible that the Subhansri, the Dihong, the Dibong, and 

 the Lohit, are, some of them, defluents of the Sanpii, whilst others of 

 them, with separate sources, are affluents. Collectively they must be 

 held, at present, to constitute the Sanpii vel Brahmaputra ; for, it is 

 certain that the Sanpu is not the Irawadi ; nor have we any grounds 

 for assigning an eastern continuation to the former river comparable in 

 validity to those which lead us to make it turn westward and traverse 

 Assam.' 



Then add, ' after ruggedness of the surface,' the words • of the Sub- 

 hemalayas.'

In the last page of the Vocabulary the Lepcha adjectives are given 

 only in one form, whereas there should be two, as Arhiim vel llhiimbo. 

 Azeu vel Zeubo. Amyen vel Myenbo, &c. One form is as common 

 as the other. But the last is important, as helping the demonstration 

 of the affinity of this tongue to that of Tibet, an unquestionable fact, 

 though denied by the high authority of De Coros. He who can reach
