prosodicPatterns and meter encoding questions #383

I have just encoded the meters for DHARMA_CritEdKakavinParthayana.xml.

  • 1. kāmamālā. This figures in canto 8, 10, 47 and 55, where Creese uses the label Wirat Tĕbu Sol. In prosodicPatterns, we refer to Zoetmulder 1974: 463, where no name is mentioned, and do not cite n. 10. As a result, it is unclear from which source the name kāmamālā is taken. I think this should be clarified. I see there is an XML comment by Zaki in line 2759. Can this be promoted to publicly visible form? And can we add the reference to Z's note?
  • 2. vaṁśamālā: This figures in canto 40. We should refer to Zoetmulder 1974: 559 n. 7 for this mix of indravaṅśa and vaṅśastha; maybe, for the same of spelling consistency with Old Javanese text edition, we should also add the kaw variant vaṅśamālā.
  • 3. In canto 46, Creese uses the name Wirat Nĕtĕg for the pattern met="-+---+-+---+------+-+---=", which we have in the prosodicPatterns file without name: shall we implement this name?
  • 4. In canto 34, there is visarjita, which we didn't have in prosodicPatterns yet. I have added it. Please check. It would be nice if a source for the name could be identified.
  • 5. In canto 23, there is nāgata, which we didn't have in prosodicPatterns yet. I have added it. Please check. It would be nice if a source for the name could be identified.

Can you take care of the above?
