Commentary
Remarks
| In one frame with [#ERROR#ref](m-a408) and [#ERROR#ref](m-a408b)-[#ERROR#ref](m-a408i). The left part of the string hole space, which covers lines 2-4, is preserved. Although this fragment is not edited by Ogihara 2009, the word aśśe may be an indication that it belongs to the Bhikṣuṇī-Prātimokṣasūtra. Therefore, it is provisionally assumed that it belongs to manuscript A 415-416, not to A 406-408. |
Philological commentary
n1 | aśśe: this could be the attestation noted in Sieg et al. 1931: 87 as "Frgm.". |
n2 | /// ktsu ///: possibly (ā)ktsu(ne). |
