Conway joins three Telugu verses of Vemana, in C. P. Brown's English, under 'Pantheism'; Tolstoy follows Conway, leaving out the kine and the flowers. Brown's verse 188 has 'Mad and idiotic' where Conway has 'Foolish'; Tolstoy's 'Безумны' is nearer Brown. The Telugu is not given: the saved Brown edition's Telugu is unreadable OCR.
