maDyena
[ madhyena plus gen. , alleged to mean to , equivalent of loc. of goal ( Hindi meṃ), acc. to Senart Mv iii n. 502 , on iii.287.2 ahaṃ rākṣasīdvīpasya madhyena gacchāmi. But this means, not I am going to the island of ogresses , but I am going by way of the island … (so madhyena in Skt. ), as is proved by 291.4—5 ; the merchantʼs goal was a puṇya samudrapattana, where he collected jewels and then returned home.]
