¹⁸⁰⁷ पाणिग्राहे मृते बाला केवलं मन्त्रसंस्कृता। सा चेदक्षतयोनिः स्यात्पुनः संस्कारमर्हति ॥ वसिष्ठ 17. 74. The half verse बालिकाक्षतयोन्योस्तु वरेणान्येन संस्कृतिः refers to both kinds of widows viz. बालिका (whose marriage is not consummated) and क्षतयोनि (whose marriage is consummated). The reading of हेमाद्रि and कलिवर्ज्यवि. (folio 1) 'बालिकाक्षतयोन्यास्तु (or--न्याश्च) is to be understood as referring only to the first kind (बालिका चासौ अक्षतयोनिश्च). The निर्णयसिन्धु (p. 368) reads बालायाः क्षतयोन्यास्तु.
