Commentary
Philological commentary
| n1 | In their edition, Sieg and Siegling 1921: 207 tentatively suggest a reading (e)ṣantāṃ. While it would fill in the context, based on the already attested forms of this ptc., we may expect *eṣäntāṃrather than **eṣantāṃ |
|---|---|
| n2 | For the translation of śka tampeṣiṃand paräṃ ñkät, see tje correspondent entries in Carling and Pinault 2023 |
Linguistic commentary
| n3 | The form āñcālinstead of āñcālyi(also śla āñcālyī) is rather unusual in TA, but it is attested in TB as añcāl ṣärnevel sim. |
