(0 At the commencement of the era of Salalan , 49 years were wanting to 
complete the current cycle ; and, in calculations where it is neceflary to adjufl: the 
two reckonings, this number muft be attended to j but as the object to be known 
is not the number of cycles, but the number of the year of an individual cycle, or 
the correfponding year of the era, it is indifferent whether in their additions and 
fubtradtions they make ufe of 49 years Amply, or of 49 added to one or more 
integral cycles, as 109, 349, or 409, which produce the fame refult. This ac- 
counts for the difference of pradtice remarked by M. Bailly (p, 31.) the brah- 
mans of different cities, and it feems to have no relation to the origin of the cycle.
