30 Tib. Ckhrul pa cdi ni dban po las skyes kyan would be equivalent to *indriyajāpy sā bhrāntir ..., but NBhūş has the lectio difficilior.
31 Tib. rnam par bcad has no equivalent in Sanskrit. 32 No equivalent for Tib. ses pa. 38 -siddhe NBhūş, but cf. 48, 19. 34 višeşasya has no equivalent in Tib. and is very probably a gloss. 35 Tib. deci byed pa ma yin paci phyir. 36 patumandākṣādibhiḥ NBhūş 47, 8; but cf. 48, 26 and Tib. 37 Tib. de Itar would be *evam. 38 Tib. don dan cdra ba las would be *arthasärūpyāt.
39 bhāvāḥ without equivalent in Tib., where the sentence is a bit shortened.
40 These verses too are apparently quoted from PVin, not from PV, for they are the immediate continuation of the quotation above.
41 For the discovery of this fragment I am much obliged to Dr. OTTO GROHMA who thereby aroused my curiosity to search for other fragments. He has also called my attention to the parallel passages of the Nyāyavārtika
