... just struck my mind that the timber is used for ... the yokes of carts
and ploughs, scabbards, *palanquins*, toys and many other purposes for which
a soft wood is useful ...
... quoted from Forest Flora of Hyderabad State - by M Sharfuddin Khan
http://forest.ap.nic.in/Forest%20Flora%20of%20Andhra%20Pradesh/Flora%20by%20M%20Sharfuddin%20Khan/Botanical%20Names/Hymenodictyon%20excelsum.htm


Thus fits *bridal couch* with *palanquin* and words in (3) & (4) of:

1) bataga, battaga, battaga, betaga, botaga
2) bindaru, bundaru
3) dalli mara, ¿ (ಡೊಲಿ ಮರ, ದೋಲಿ ಮರ) ? dolimara, dolli
4) dhodi mara, ¿ ದಿಡ್ಡಿ ಮರ ? diddimara, doddi
5) dodda thoppe mara
6) ganadla mara, gandala, gandele

relate to palanquin and other wood uses ... are resolved to ದಿಡ್ಡಿ ಮರ diddi
mara, ದೊಡ್ಡಿ ಮರ doddi mara, ಡೊಲಿ ಮರ doli mara

Regards.
