Transliteration

a4	... "having tamed [and] having recognized" ... (Peyrot 2016b: 202)
a5	... "they are brahmins in the [three] worlds" ... (Peyrot 2016b: 203)

*	The edition of fragments A 425.e and A 425.f is mainly based on Peyrot 2016b: 201-203.
*	In one frame with A 423-A 425, A 425.a-A 425.d and A 425.f. The upper margin of the recto (lower of the verso) seems to be preserved.

n1	: cf. Uv.33.56b āryo hy aṣṭāṅgikaḥ śivaḥ.
n2	: cf. Uv.33.56d/57/d lokeṣu brāhmaṇā hi te.
n3	Maybe cf. Uv.33.57/c damayitvā hy abhijñāya.
n4	Peyrot 2016b: 202 restores (pāpaka)m; eventually, the first akṣara of the line could be differently restored as [ṇa]ṃ, as in eṣaṇa- ´seeking for, wishing´, which would correspond to rītālun(e), but such a restoration would not be supported by the Skt. text.
n5	: cf. Uv.33.60a chinddhi srotaḥ parākramya.
n6	: cf. Uv.33.60d hy akṛtajño bhaviṣyati
n7	: cf. Uv.33.61c rāṣṭraṃ sānucaraṃ hatvā?
