 58 § 78-79. Rem. 1. The fundamental conception seems here to be that of concomitancy. Hence it may be explained, how the third case occasi- onally denotes even at what time, as R., 72, 12 g (at one and the same day) payanni adui ruined front pager, and such standing phrases as tờa, à quàn, which are especially frequent in Buddhistic and Jain books. cp. 4, 2, 4. Rem. 2. The naxatra or constellation, under which something P. 2, 3, 45 occurs, may be put indifferently in the third or the seventh case: gour or od 9. Examples of the instrum. Açv.

The dative or fourth case serves to point out the destination, and therefore it generally does answer to En- the daglish to and for, Latin ad or in with acc. Yet, if it be tive. wanted to express the destination of a real going or mov- ing, the accusative (39) or locative (134) are commonly preferred, although the dative may be used even then, TA Tgd being as correct as 44 tid.

Adunat (after ceasing the battle both armies retired to their encampments). With causative verbs of moving; as those of bringing, throwing, casting, this kind of dative is frequent.

The aim, reached, attained is never put in the dative (39) ¹). 1) Compare DELBRÜCK's monography on the employment of the dative in the Rgvedasanhitâ in Kuhn's Zeitschr. XVIII, p. 81-106. Monographies on the syntax of the dative in classic Sanskrit are not known to me. 2) Cp. Pat. I, 448, vârtt. 4 on P. 2, 3, 12.
