Commentary

Philological commentary

n1: the word division is uncertain. If klyor rkli is a writing error for klyor kli, the last word could be kliso 'slept', but the last akṣara can otherwise also be read s[i].
n2(kä)ltsnāntr-äṃ: cf. Malzahn 2010: 591 (who incorrectly cites the form as (kä)ltsnāträ-ṃ THT 1151 b1).
