c12.s3.25

by *yaduktaṃ śrutau*, “it is said in the Veda”; in G. by *yaduktaṃ suśrute*, “it is said in Suśruta”. Cordier in a note in his hand on the MSS. of G. supposes it to refer to an older edition of Suśruta because it is not the practice of the commentator to thus denote the text commented upon by him. But the good reading must be *śrutau* as the quotation is an approximative reproduction of the *Bṛh.-up.*, VI, 1,13.
