The Two-Volume Lexicon (Tib. སྒྲ་སྦྱོར་བམ་པོ་གཉིས་པ; ་Wyl. sgra sbyor bam po gnyis pa) or Madhyavyutpatti (Wyl. bye brag tu rtogs byed 'bring po) is a text of guidelines produced during King Tri Ralpachen’s reign by several panditas and lotsawas—especially panditas Jinamitra and Danashila, and lotsawa Shyang Yeshé Dé—establishing the rules of translation.
