v2.c35.s1.87

(1) A reads जीर्णं जीर्णं. B reads चूर्णो जीर्णो.
(2) A reads धृतिहेमनिभो भवेत्, (धृति = द्रुत.) B reads हिमवर्णोभो जायते, which mars the metre.
(3) A reads अथवा, which destroys the metre.
(4) A omits तथा.
(5) A reads जीर्णं जीर्णं, which seems to be incorrect. B reads चूर्णो जीर्णो.
(6) हेमधृति(?)संनिभो भवेत् सूतः, a variant in A.
(7) कनकञ्च रसाप्ययुतं, a variant in A, which is a defective metre. The reading of B, which we have adopted, is also a defective metre. The word चेत् or स्यात् should be added after the word युतम्.
