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. - [Previous: v2.c35.s1.86](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.ray-1902.v2.c35.s1.86) - [Next: v2.c35.s1.88](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.ray-1902.v2.c35.s1.88) - [Up: v2.c35.s1](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.ray-1902.v2.c35.s1) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.ray-1902.v2.c35.s1.87](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.science.ray-1902.v2.c35.s1.87) · Pramāṇa
