v2.c4.355

⁹ *Cf.* perhaps *suvarṇam hiraṇyam peśalam* in the Taittirīya Brāhmaṇa, iii. 3, 4, 5, where *peśala* probably refers to cunningly-worked gold. But this does not suit the compound *peśas-kārī*, which must denote a ‘maker of *peśas*,’ and *peśas* has not the sense of wrought gold in any passage. *Cf.* also Bṛhadāraṇyaka Upaniṣad, iv. 4, 5; Zimmer, *Altindisches Leben*, 261.
