But Allama is not in earnest; according to the short tale in the Canna Ba-
sava P.^o>, ''he laughs at her in contempt, (leaves her), comes (to the grave)
of Anumisha (above p. xxxi.), takes the linga out of (his) hand, by his
instruction gives liberation (mukti) to Goggayya^^) and Muktayi (whom he
happens to meet there), and thence goes to Basava at Kalyana, where he
ascends the sfinya pitha which till then had been taken care of by Basava".
At last he goes to iSriSaila, where he dies a little before Basava**). In
Telugu there is a translation of the Prabhu linga lile by Pidupati Somayya**);
the Tamil translation is by <Sivaprakasa desika of the 17th century**).
