doubtless persons performing the same activity, to (especially) waken in the morning and entertain a high personage, are meant by paṭhanti pāṇisvanikāḥ Mbh. 〔7.2912〕 (Nīl. hastena tālasvanaṃ kurvante, prob. palm-clapping, not cymbal-sound
so pw s.v. tālasvana), also 〔12.1899〕 (no comm. in Nīl.): pāṇisvaraṃ kumbhatūṇaṃ (see this) mṛdaṅgānāṃ svarāṇi ca pratibodhenti Mv 〔ii.52.15〕 (= Jāt. 〔v.390.25〕)
