TOUR FROM SOIJRABAYA, THROUGH KEDIRT, &C. 197 
the darn burst and buried the illstarred Panji in its ruins, 
whilst an adjoining hill, still called Gunung Prahu (Boat ■ 
mountain) situated at the north end of the Kolotok, still 
commemorates both in name and shape, the remains of the 
unfinished boat which was to have borne the Panji and his 
intended bride on the lake. 
Many traces of a Hindu from of worship are to be found 
in Kediri, consisting of ruins of temples and stone images. 
The want of time prevented our visiting all that are known 
and probably many more are still buried in the wildernesses 
of this residency. One ancient image called Horcho Guri/ f 
words which imply the (i imege of the spiritual instructor,” 
is found at the distance of a quarter of a paul south-west 
from the Fort and Residency; it stands on a little plot of 
dry ground surrounded by sawahs, and leans against a large 
umbrageous Ficus tree, which in its growth has^ began to 
envelop part of the statue. The tree though large is evident¬ 
ly not very ancient, and may have been planted here by way 
of a support. The image is an upright figure of some male 
Hindu deity, and is about six feet high to the top of the 
tiara. On either side of it, and cut out of the same stone 
stands a small female figure, reaching hardly to his hips. 
Unfortunately the face of the main image has been knocked 
off, but the ornamented tiara, by which the head is surmount¬ 
ed is still perfect, being the usual shape of a truncated cone 
The left arm hangs straight down the side, and the hand 
reposes upon a Gada or club, the lower end of which stands 
on a pedestal. The corresponding right arm is broken off, 
but appears to have been bent at the elbow so that the hand 
rested in front of the stomach, with the palm upwards. 
Additional sets of arms appear to spring from the shoulders, 
hut these, and the emblems they most probably bear, are 
grown over by the body of the tree. Bracelets are suspend¬ 
ed from the neck and are seen on the arms; over each 
shoulder is seen a small projection, something like the tips 
of a crescent, which as well as the gada, is considered as 
indicative of Vishnu. A drapery is hung round the lower 
part of the body. The small female figures on either side 
are similarly dressed, but their protruding breasts point out 
their intended sex; their hands repose against the back or 
reverted under side of the Lotus leaf. Under the shade of 
a fig tree may be seen some Mahomedan graves set round 
with loose bricks, and the respect which the natives still 
pay to the spot, may he judged of from the fresh remains of
