⁵⁶⁴ Vide Proceedings of the American Oriental Society, vol. XIII pp. CCXXI-XXVI where, after referring to the views of Ludwig (III. p. 445), Weber (Indische Studien XIII. p. 164) and Zimmer (Altindische Leben, p. 184) about the mention of the fire ordeal in the above hymn, it is sought to be proved that the hymn refers to re-establishing a soiled reputation and reliance is placed on the Kausikasūtra (47. 25 ff) which does not treat it as a fire ordeal hymn.
