15. Graminatically it is necessary to read either the in the acousa - tive plural or FTET in the instrumental plural, the former being certainly better. Te would be more grammatical than TATI
16. (1) As the line stands, GETET, without any connection with a nominative, is grammatioally a bad form.
. (2) I. ERTAT I 17. B. f1: Têtr; the second dat is apparently for gfa: or arfa: 1 19. J.J. agat; J. aua 1
21. (1) J. J. FarirT: 1 (2) T.J. wer; if the reading fahitt: be preserved, we must read AATTOR:, but this construction does not bear a satisfactory leaning. We would read faTITTEE FATEST * ; compare line 24 below.
J. leaves out the lines 19-21, and B. 19-22.
22. I J. arfer; the emendation is suggested by the other Mos. coinpare line 20 above.
23. Aft is not intended to be read in the neuter because the adjeotiva F ET is read in the feminine; but the other adjectives are read in the neuter.
24. (1) I. ATFEATATAFITTI (2) A. yel It should be noticed that the rules of grammar are outrageously violated in this line.
25. B. AUTTET
26. (1) I. & I (2) A. Rfx for Act. The neuter adjectives qualifying feminine noun in lines 25, 26 as la 21-24, if not in 18—20 and 27-29, should be noticed.
27. J. ATSTATTERI 28. 1. fast for THAI 29. I. Teg for afg 30. This line seems to be out of place here. .
34. (1) I. J. fast for furt; the mistake seems due to the carelessness of the copyists.
(2) I. शूद्वैः for शूद्राणां seems to have been prompted by the desire of preserving the metre.
(3) B. ut THC
