Commentary
Remarks
| The name b4 iśva(radatte) suggests appurtenance to the manuscript A 144-211, where it is attested in A 159 a3, A 160 b1, A 161 b4, A 164 a5, b4 and THT 1150 a3. |
Philological commentary
| n1 | : The word division is uncertain. |
|---|---|
| n2 | knāṣ-äṃ: the correct interpretation of this form was given by Itkin 2011: 251, to which a reference is unfortunately lacking in Peyrot 2011: 45 (which appeared later). Pace Malzahn 2011b: 140, the form is not related to knā- 'know' (it is left with a question mark in Carling et al. 2009: 170a). |
| n3 | (puttiśpa)rṣṣāṃ: Other restorations are also possible. Unlike in this case, would usually expect a noun to be following this obl.sg.f. adjective. |
| n4 | (wāk)m(a)ts: Other restorations are also possible. |
