203.

In determining the site of some locality gerunds are often used, which admit of being rendered by prepositions. R. 2, 80, 21 jāhnavīṃ tu samāsādhya [rājamārgaḥ] (the highway is along the Ganges). Kâçikâ on P. 3, 4, 20 (*1) gives these instances: aprāpya nadīṃ parvataḥ sthitaḥ / atikramya tu parvataṃ nadī sthitā (the mount is before the river, but the river is beyond the mount).

(*1)
The rule of Pâṇini treats only of this idiom when expressive of the notions »beyond” and »before.”
