Note on the transliteration:

The transliteration system of the BP/TLB is based on the Unicode/UTF-8 system. However, there may be difficulties with some of the letters – particularly on PC/Windows-based systems, but not so much on the Mac. We have chosen the most accepted older and traditional systems of transliteration against, e.g, Wylie for Tibetan, since with Unicode it is possible, in Sanskrit and Tibetan, etc., to represent one sound with one letter in almost all the cases (excepting Sanskrit and Tibetan aspirated letters, and Tibetan tsa, tsha, dza). We thus do not use the Wylie system which widely employs two letters for one sound (ng, ny, sh, zh etc.).

Important:

We ask you in particular to note the use of the ’ apostrophe and not the ' representing the avagrāha in Sanskrit, and most important the ’a-chuṅ in Tibetan. On the Mac the ’ is Alt-M.

[25] Then, the minister, Pracaṇḍa, returned to the hall of justice and said to those royal officers: "Go, Sirs, summon the executioners." They were summoned by them and the minister, Pracaṇḍa, said to the executioners: "Sirs, this maiden Kāśisundarī was killed in the park by this lad. Go, make firm the bonds on the hands behind the back of this ill-behaved man and, with the sounding of a harsh-noised kettle-drum, having made proclamations at the points for proclamations on carriage-roads, streets, junctions, and cross-roads, wend your way through the southern city-gate. Taking him to the great cemetery, place him upon a stake. When dead, place him together with the maiden Kāśisundarī upon the same pyre and cremate." Then, those executioners looked at the lad Suvarṇavarṇa who was exceedingly handsome and, like the peak of the mountain of purified gold, was radiant with extreme lustre. Become despondent, they said to one another: "Sirs, though we are executioners, indeed, how could we kill an excellent person such as this, the sight of whom is extremely difficult to obtain. In every way, it is better that we should lose our lives than that we should, indeed, kill him."
