This verse, being Mantra 412, is wanting in the MS. 66 Parhaps parigraha may be intended to be more general: "possossion of things.'
67 Aiminai I take to be intended for 4śvinai, the lost akshara may be supplied by reading either afvin-aiva (i.6., avini dua or a fvinair-akrita. As the Asvins are always two, probably the latter reading is oorreot, though an unusual formation. The Abving are givors of luck. L'kh refers to the writing of a man's fato on his skull.
