28 Iha is the Sanskrit form of the word, which has developed to idha in Pāḷi.
29 Patna normally writes the first consonant as anusvara in these forms. In the Pāḷi manuscripts the
same convention normally prevails, but the custom in transcription is write it as the nasal of the
class it belongs to.
30 Roth: so nandati s[o pramo]dati; Shukla: so nandati [so pramo]dati. However, the reading
cannot be reconstructed here with such certainty.
31 This verse seems to combine Dhp 16 and 18, or it may be the Pāḷi has differentiated one verse
into two. The Udānavarga and Gāndhārī rescensions agree with Patna.
32 The opening of the posterior line allows two shorts in 2nd and 3rd positions, which again seems
to have been as acceptable to the bhāṇakas in the Patna tradition as it was to the Pāḷi bhāṇakas.
33 There are 9 syllables in this line, which is avoided in the Pāḷi by dropping niggahīta and
subsequent sandhi of the vowels.
