Dear Arlo,

Perhaps you have already received the requested key off-list. But as this
question may have a wider relevance to anyone who teaches Sanskrit, it may
be worthwhile to reply to it on the list. The key to Sanskrit-English
exercises and English-Sanskrit exercises was included already in the first
edition, 1976. It is the key to the Supplementary English-Sanskrit
exercises that was not included in the first edition. The key to these
Supplementary exercises was included in the second edition, 1992, pp.
494-504. I do not at present have a way to scan these pages, but will find
a way if no one else supplies them. Interestingly, both the Supplementary
English-Sanskrit exercises and their key were omitted in the 2006 edition,
which I suppose is the one still being sold.

Best regards,

David Reigle
Colorado, U.S.A.
