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.

[22] The king’s officers, too, arrived there and having entered it began to search that park.  Now they saw the maiden Kāśisundarī dragged hither and thither, her hair dishevelled, and fallen senseless upon the ground.  On account of the power of the fruition of the former deeds of the lad Suvarṇavarṇa nobody ascertained whether she was just unconscious or whether she was dead at that time.  Then the king’s officers said to one another:  "Sirs, this woman has been slain by someone".  They searched that whole park and did not see anyone other than the lad Suvarṇavarṇa.  They questioned the lad Suvarṇavarṇa:  "Lad, who killed this woman?"  He replied: "Sirs, I, too, do not know, I, too, saw her just so."
