Reciting \[the verses\] as they stand, without combining them hither and thither, is the attainment of the path. 'He who has met \[with misfortune\] and thinks of himself as fallen from prosperity should have the Ṣoḷaśin recited unseparated, \[saying\]: "May I not fall down from the metre into distress." Then, he who would wish to strike away evil should have the Ṣoḷaśin recited separated; for a person is, as it were, intertwined with evil. That \[recitation\] drives away for him that very evil, the stain, intertwined. He who knows thus strikes away evil.'
