*Translation.* Between the great toe and the toe next to it, there lies the vital spot, called *kṣipra*. Upwards of this *kṣipra*, both ways (i. e. externally and internally), there lies the *kūrca*, or cluster. Below the ankle-joint, but not both ways, there lies the *kūrca-śiras*, or cluster-head (astragalus).
