216 The resolution here is on na la-, which shows how close the negative is associated syntactically<br />
with the word that follows, and as far as I have seen two-word resolution only occurs with the<br />
preceding negative.<br />
217 We need to read hiṁsati here to correct the metre and in line with the parallel. Probably a<br />
scribal error.
