In the second set of explanations, "the first verse reveals the various desires that await their time" explains the first line: because they are what ought to be spoken, they await their time, as explained before in the four alternatives of the first set. "Wrong practice regarding desires" is the second line: dwelling relying on what ought to be spoken. "The fruit of wrong practice" is the lower half of the verse: gathering and inviting saṃsāra. In the second verse, the first half is called relinquishing desire, which conforms to reason; the second half is called practicing censure and debate, which does not conform to reason. "And desires awaiting their time": the second half also shows the mind of desire awaiting its time, for if one wishes to enjoy them, they are obtained only by awaiting their time. "The third verse is also like this": it also means abandoning arrogance to seek freedom from arrogance.
