2.19.35

rasasya tu surāyāḥ puṣpaphalayos tuṣāṅgārāṇāṃ sudhāyāś ca śikhāmānaṃ dviguṇottarā vṛddhiḥ //

But liquids shall always be measured level to the mouth of the measure.

R. Shamasastry 1915, Kautilya's Arthaśāstra

With regard to wine, flowers, fruits, bran, charcoal and slaked lime, twice the quantity of the heaped-up portion (i.e., ¼th of the measure) shall be given in excess. 1¼ panas is the price of a drona. ¾ pana,, an ádhaka. 6 máshas,, a prastha. 1 másha,, a kudumba.

R. Shamasastry 1915, Kautilya's Arthaśāstra
