§ 144-146. 144. 9. The locative denoting, at which distance one thing 9. Lo- cat. of or fact is from another. Ait. Br. 2, 17, 8 at 3: Farit PERB.

Cp. 99 R. 1. distan ce. 110 146. Rem. Pat. I, p. 455 mentions the promiscuousness of the turns natuan: eiche draf atafor and ag. But if an interval of time is to be signified, the locative alone is available: f (the full moon of Agrahâyanî is a month after that of Kârttiki). 145. III. Dative-like locative. In 134 it has been shown, Dative- that the locative is used with verbs of putting in or on, tive placing etc. Sanskrit extends that idiom to many kindred like loca- conceptions, and often uses the locative with verbs of giving, promising, buying, selling, telling etc., so as to make it concur with the dative or the genitive of the remote object. Cp. English to bestow upon. Examples of the dative-like locative: R. 1, 68, 16 aztá yarated mà dfa, ibid. 1, 51, 5 14 391gai 44 stat, ibid. 1, 75, 7 et af (promised it to Indra), Mudr.

R. 2, 96, 28 an agaràg Chalfood gr In several phrases the locative may even be a concur- rent idiom of the dativus finalis, especially of the infi- nitive-like dative. It is namely put to a) words of striving after, wishing, resolving; b) to verbs of appointing to, ordaining, enjoining, permitting, as auf, ia, 1) So is the good reading.
