Remarks
| In view of the space above line a1 and under line b4, it would seem that these are indeed the first and the last line of the leaf and the upper margin of the recto (lower of the verso) is preserved. In any case, no line is missing between a4 and b1, so that the manuscript probably had 4 lines on each side. On IDP, recto and verso are reversed. | |
| According to Broomhead 1962: 352 "[w]ritten in medium ductus, and very clearly preserved, it is the middle of a manuscript of which only four lines remain visible". Broomhead gives the size as 3.5" in width and 2" in depth/height and has recto/verso inverted. |
Philological commentary
| n1 | Uv.27.8c ahaṃ karomīti na tasya hiṃsyāt (for hiṃsyāt one should read hi syāt). |
|---|---|
| n2 | The marginal rests are difficult to interpret. m·sk· is here tentatively completed as (ya)m(a)sk(au), for karomi Uv. 27.8c. |
| n3 | Uv.27.9a-b mānopeto hy ayaṃ loko mānasaktaḥ sadā sthitaḥ |
| n4 | Uv.27.10a yat prāptaṃ yac ca prāptavyaṃ |
| n5 | Uv.27.10d jahyād vidvāṃ samāhitaḥ |
| n6 | kakraupau pa –: we expect kakraupau 10. |
| n7 | Uv.27.11c upasthānarataye ca (for °rataye one should read °ratā ye) |
| n8 | Uv.27.12b na doṣas teṣu vidyate |
| n9 | Uv.27.13b tv atilīyanti bāliśaḥ, here apparently atilīyati (no trace of an anusvāra over the ya can be discerned). The sg. atilīyati matches the otherwise irregular sg. bāliśaḥ (Bechert and Waldschmidt 1973 III: 254a). |
| n10 | Uv.27.13d cakṣuṣmāṃs tāṃ prapaśyati |
