Englishpracārika, m. or nt., °kā, f., in pāda-pra°, journey on foot: Mmk 〔694.3—4〕, ūṣmāyamāne pādapracārikaṃ pañcayojanaśatāni gacchati, sarve cāsya pādapracārikā vaśyā bhavanti, if it steams, (it augurs that) he is going a journey of 500 yojanas on foot, and all foot-journeys come under his control
but the mg. in the next two is obscure to me: ūṣmāyamāne (as above!) pādapracārikāṃ (so!) pañcavarṣasahasrāyur bhavati Mmk 〔713.17〕, and: pādapracārike (! loc. sg.?) saptavarṣsahasrāṇi jīvati 〔718.8—9〕
in both of these it seems that omens of very long life are inferred, in the first depending on steaming of the offering
[Page357-b] the word pādapra° is obscure in application
perhaps read °rikāyāṃ for °rikāṃ in 〔713.17〕, and render both words in case of (his making) a foot-journey?
