Commentary
Philological commentary
| This fragment and THT 1487 and THT 1488 belong together. | |
| n1 | There is a +-sign at the end of this line. |
| n2 | kälkām 'going' is the same kind of formation as kälpām 'receiving'. |
| n3 | Ogihara assumes that this is the TA word for Kucha. |
| n4 | From the position within the clause, it seems most likely that pal is used here like in ñäkciṃ pal 'like gods'. |
