[Adhyāya 1] athāto 'nnapānarakṣākalpaṃ vyākhyāsyāmaḥ || yathovāca bhagavān dhanvantariḥ || One of the only two places in the Nepalese version where this phrase appears. The other is Suśrutasaṃhitā 6.60.2. The latter location also adds the phrase śruṇu vatsa suśruta, similar to the marginal note of a scribe of MS H here. divodāsakṣitipatis tapodharmabhṛtāṃ varaḥ | suśrutapramukhāñ chiṣyāñ śaśāsāhata śāsanaḥ || Note that in the Nepalese version, it is Divodāsa, the king of the earth, who teaches the medical discipline to Suśruta, not Dhanvantari, king of Kāśī, as in the vulgate. ripavo

This suggests that H was copied from K or a very close intermediate witness that copied the error of K. pakvāmāśayayos sādo hikkā kāso 'ntrakūjanam | caturthe jāyate vege śirasaś cāpi gauravam | kaphapraseko vaivarṇyaṃ pārśvabhedaś ca pañcame | sarvadoṣaprakopaś ca pakvādhāne ca vedanā | ṣaṣṭhe sañjñāpraṇāśaś ca bhṛśaṃ cāpy atisāryate || skandha pṛṣṭha kaṭībhaṅgāḥ sannirodhaś ca saptame || prathame viṣavege tu vāntaṃ śītāṃbusecitam | sarpirmadhubhyāṃ saṃyuktam agadam pāyayen naram || The reading of the K witness is grammatically clearer than the vulgate. The erroneous reading of nominative naraḥ in H may be the reason for the rewriting of this verse in the vulgate. Gayadāsa on the next verse shows that he read the same syntax as the Nepalese version. dvitīye pūrvavad vāntaṃ viriktañ cāpi pāyayet | tṛtīye 'gadapānan tu hitan nasyaṃ tathāñjanam || sindhuṃ caturthe 'lpasneham agadam pāyayed bhiṣak | pañcame kṣaudramadhukakvāthayuktaṃ pradāpayet || ṣaṣṭhe 'tisāravat siddhir avasīdet tu saptame | vegāntare tv anyatame kṛte karmaṇi śītalām | yavāgūṃ saghṛtakṣaudrām imāṃ dadyād viṣāpahām | kośavaty agnikaḥ pāṭhā sūryavaly amṛtābhayā | śeluḥ śirīṣakiṇihī haridre bṛhatīdvayam | Aṣṭāṅgasaṅgraha Utt.40.55.

The Nepalese version does not read exactly as the vulgate or Ḍalhaṇa, but it is similar, and not absent. dvitīye vihvalaḥ kūjan pakṣī maraṇam arcchati | kecid ekaṃ vihaṅgeṣu viṣavegam uśanti vai || mārjāranakulādīnāṃ viṣaṃ nātipravartata iti || The root must be vaś, against the Nepalese transmission.

It is most unlikely to be an adverbial form qualifying yuñjyat. At this point in manuscript K, the scribe's eye skipped from the word yavāgūṃ forward to the phrase yavāgūn dāpayed dhitāṃ in verse 5.5.26b. A different scribe noticed this and added an asterisk to the text and inserted the skipped passage at the bottom of the folio, between two asterisks. This addition is very faint. śītopacāraṃ puruṣaṃ vegayoḥ pañcaṣaṣṭhayoḥ | pāyayec chodhanaṃ tīkṣṇaṃ yavāgūñ cāpi kīrttitām | saptame tv avapīḍena śiras tīkṣṇena śodhayet | pūrvo maṇḍalināṃ vego darvīkaravad ācaret | dvitīye sarppirmmadhunī pāyayitvā ca vāmayet | tṛtīye ca viriktasya yavāgūn dāpayed dhitām | caturthe pañcame cāpi darvvīkaravad ācaret | kākolyādir hitaḥ ṣaṣṭhe peyaś ca madhuro 'gadaḥ | hito 'vapīḍe tv agadaḥ saptame viṣanāśanaḥ || atha rājimatāṃ vege prathame śoṇitaṃ haret | vāntaṃ dvitīye tv agadaṃ pāyayed viṣanāśanam | tṛtīyādiṣu triṣv eva vidhir dārvīkaro hitaḥ | ṣaṣṭhe 'ñjanaṃ tīkṣṇatamam avapīḍaś ca saptame | garbhiṇībālavṛddhānāṃ sirāvedhavivarjitam | viṣārttiṣu yathoddiṣṭaṃ vidhānaṃ mṛdu śasyate | raktāvasekāñjanāni naratulyāny ajāvike | gavāśvayos tad dviguṇaṃ triguṇaṃ mahiṣoṣṭrayoḥ | caturguṇaṃ tu nāgānāṃ kevalaṃ sarvapakṣiṇām | deśa prakṛti sātmya rtu viṣavegabalābalam | pradhārya nipuṇaṃ budhyā tataḥ karma samācaret | We emend ntu to rtu; the readings of this akṣara in the Nepalese manuscripts are hard to judge, but on balance it looks as if scribes at an earlier stage of transmission may have misread rtu as ntu. niḥśeṣaṃ nirharec cainaṃ viṣaṃ paramadurjayam | svalpam apy avatiṣṭhaṃ hi bhūyo vegāya kalpate | kuryād vā sādavaivarṇṇyajvarakāsaśirorujaḥ | śoṣaśophapratiśyāyatimirāruci jāḍyatām | tāsu cāpi yathāyogaṃ pratikarma prayojayet | viṣārttopadravāṃś cāpi yathāsvaṃ samupācaret || athāriṣṭāṃ vimucyāśu pracchayitvāṅkitaṃ tayā | vidyāt tatra viṣaṃ skannaṃ bhūyo vegāya kalpate | viṣāpāye 'nilaṃ kruddhaṃ jayed anilavāraṇaiḥ | taila madya kulatthāmla varjair viṣaharāyutaiḥ | pittaṃ pittajvaraharaiḥ kaṣāyasneharecanaiḥ | kapham āragvadhādyena sakṣaudreṇa gaṇena tu || gāḍhaṃ baddhe 'riṣṭayā pracchite vā | tīkṣṇair lepair viṣaśeṣeṇa vāpi | śūne gātre klinnam atyarthapūti śīrṇṇaṃ māṃsaṃ viṣapūti pradiṣṭaṃ || sadyaḥ kṣataṃ pacyate yasya jantoḥ | kṛṣṇaṃ raktaṃ sravate dahyate ca | śyāvībhūtaṃ klinnam atyarthapūti | kṣatāt māṃsaṃ śīryate yasya cāpi | tṛṣṇā mūrcchā jvaradāhau ca yasya | digdhāhataṃ taṃ manujam vyavasyet || These two hemistiches are in different eleven-syllable metres, śālinī and indravajrā.

One solution would be to read kokilā, but there is no other evidence for this lexeme. śvetaś ca mahatā sārdhaṃ kapilenākhunā tathā | mūṣikaś ca kapotābhas tathaivāṣṭādaśa smṛtāḥ || śukraṃ patati yatraiṣāṃ śukraspṛṣṭaiḥ spṛśanti vā | nakhadantādibhis tasmiṃ gātre raktaṃ praduṣyati | jāyante granthayaḥ śophāḥ karṇṇikā maṇḍalāni ca | piṭakopacayāś cogrā visarpāḥ kiṭibhāni ca | parvabhedo rujaś cāpi jvaro mūrcchā ca dāruṇāḥ | daurbalyam aruciḥ sādo vamathur lomaharṣaṇam | daṣṭarūpaṃ samāsoktam etad vyāsam ataḥ śṛṇu || lālāsrāvo lālanena cchardi hikkā ca jāyate | I emend the Nepalese reading lālanā in accordance with the vulgate, for metre (in the case of K, which is short of a syllable) and to provide a subject for the sentence. The use of the instrumental also follows the grammatical pattern of rat-names in the subsequent paragraphs. Reading K as an ablative, lālanāc chardi still leaves the verse short of a syllable. taṇḍulīyakakalkaṃ tu lihyāt tatra samākṣikam || putrakeṇāṅgasaṃsādaḥ pāṇḍu valguś ca jāyate | cīyate granthibhiś cāṅgaṃ śiśur mūṣikasaṃsthitaiḥ | śirīṣeṅgudipatraṃ tu lihyāt tatra samākṣikam || The expression śiśur mūṣikasaṃsthitaiḥ is problematic. Various ideas for emendation do not greatly help. kṛṣṇenāsṛk chardayati durdine tu viśeṣataḥ | śirīṣapatraṃ kuṣṭhailāḥ pibet kiṃśukabhasmanā || The Nepalese witnesses are clear about the lack of visarga after kuṣṭhailā. vasireṇānnavidveṣo jṛmbho romnāñ ca kuṣṭhatā | pibed āragvadhādin tu vāntas tatrāśu mānavaḥ || cikkireṇa śiroduḥkhaṃ śopho hikkā vamis tathā | suvānto jālinīkvāthaiḥ sāram aṅkollajam pibet || Ḍalhaṇa noted that the commentator Gayadāsa had this reading, suvānto ... pibet, i.e., the Nepalese reading. chucchundareṇa viṭsaṅga grīvāstambha vijṛmbhikāḥ | We emend to viṭsaṅga, a known condition. Witness K is so effaced at this point that one could project any reading on it. Witness H has post corr. tamperings that obscure its readings. The vulgate retains the -ṭch- conjunct at this place in the text, albeit in different words. Probably it is the sandhi of viṭ+śaṅga (Macdonell para. 53a: -ṭ+ś- to -ṭch-) with the common Nepalese scribal insensitivity to the s/ś distinction. yavanālārṣabhīkṣāraṃ vṛhatyau cātra dāpayet || We add cātra dāpayet following MS H and Ḍalhaṇa's citation of this reading from Gayadāsa. MS K is impossible to read definitively here. The text aṅkoṭha...viṣāpaham in the vulgate's 5.7.18ab reads like a marginal note that has migrated into the main text. grīvāstambho 'ralenātha rujāś cādaṃśamaṇḍale | mahāgadam mahāvīryaṃ lihyāt tatra samākṣikam || nidrā kaṣāyadantena jāyate kārśyam eva ca | lihyāt tatra śirīṣasya madhunā sāramāṣakān || kuliṅgena rujaḥ śopho rājyaś cādamśamaṇḍale | sahe sasinduvāre ca lihyāt tatra samākṣike || ajitena vamī mūrcchā hṛdgrahaḥ kṛṣṇagātratā | tatra snuhākṣīrayuktāṃ mañjiṣṭhāṃ madhunā lihet || capalena bhavec chardir mūrcchā ca saha tṛṣṇayā | sabhasmakāṣṭhāṃ sajaṭāṃ kṣaudreṇa triphalāṃ pibet || kapilena vraṇaṃ kothaṃ jvaro granthyudgamas tathā | kṣaudreṇa lihyāc chvetātra śvetā vāpi punarṇṇavā || granthayaḥ kokilenoktā jvaro dāhaś ca dāruṇaḥ | nīlāvarṣābhuniḥkvāthaiḥ siddhaṃ tatra pibed ghṛtam || aruṇenānilaḥ kruddho vātajāṃ kurute gadān | mahākṛṣṇena pittañ ca śvetena kapha eva ca | mahatā kapilenāsṛk kapotena catuṣṭayam || bhavanti caiṣān daṃśeṣu granthimaṇḍalakarṇṇikāḥ || piḍakopacayāś cāṅge śophāś ca bhṛśa dāruṇāḥ | dadhikṣīraghṛtaprasthās trayaḥ pratyekaśo mitāḥ | karañjāragvadhaṃ vyoṣaṃ bṛhaty aṃśumatī sthirāḥ | niṣkvāthya tasya kvāthasya caturthāṃśaḥ punarbhavet || tṛvṛt tilvāmṛtā vakra sarvagandhāgamṛttikāḥ | The Nepalese MSS support the reading agamṛttikā, a reading attested by Jejjaṭa as cited by Ḍalhaṇa in his comment on this verse. kapitthadāḍimatvak ca ślakṣṇapiṣṭāni dāpayet | tat sarvam ekataḥ kṛtvā śanair mṛdvagninā pacet || pañcānām aruṇādīnāṃ viṣam etad vyapohati | kākādanīkākamācī svarasveṣv athavā kṛtam | sirāś ca vyadhayet prāptāḥ kuryāt saṃśodhanāni ca | sarvveṣu vā vidhiḥ kāryo mūṣikāṇām viṣeṣv ayaṃ || dagdhvā visrāvayed daṃśaṃ pracchitañ ca pralepayet | śirīṣarajanīvakraṃ kuṃkumair amṛtāyutaiḥ | cchardanaṃ nīlinīkvāthaiḥ śukākhyāṅkollayor api | virecane tṛvṛddantītriphalākalka iṣyate | śirovirecane sāraḥ śirīṣasya phalāni vā | kaṭutrikāḍhyaś ca hito gomayaḥ svaraso 'añjane | kapitthagomayarasau sakṣaudrau leha iṣyate | taṇḍulīyakamūleṣu sarpiḥ siddhaṃ piben naraḥ | āsphotamūlasiddham vā pañcakāpittam eva vā | mūṣikāṇāṃ viṣaṃ prāyaḥ kupyaty abhreṣu nirhṛtam | tatrāpy eṣa vidhaḥ kāryaḥ yaś ca dūṣīviṣāpahaḥ || sthirāmandarujāś cāpi karṇṇikāṃ pracchayed bhiṣak | sarvasminn eva tu viṣe vraṇavac cācaret kriyām || śvaśṛgālavṛkavyāghratarakṣvāder viṣaṃ yadā | śleṣmā praduṣṭā puṣṇāti saṃjñāṃ śrotro valāśritaḥ || tadā prasrasta. lāṅgūlahanuskandhobhilālimān | avyaktavadhiro 'ndhaś ca so 'nyonyam abhidhāvati | tena daṣṭasya cāṅge syuḥ suptaḥ kṛṣṇaṃ jvaraty asṛk || digdhaviddhasya liṅgena prāyaśaś cābhiliṅgitaḥ | yena cāpi bhaved daṣṭas tasya ceṣṭārutannaraḥ | bahuśaḥ pratikurvāṇaḥ kriyāhīno vinaśyati || daṃṣṭriṇā yena daṣṭas tu taṃ daṣṭo yadi paśyati | apsu vā yadi vādarśe riṣṭaṃ tasya vinirdiśet | yadi trasyaty adaṣṭo pi śabdasyarśanadarśanaiḥ | jālatrāsaṃ tu taṃ vidyād daṣṭaṃ tad api kīrttitam | visrāvya daṃśaṃ taṃ daṣṭe sarpiṣā paridāhitam | pradihyād agadaiḥ sarpiḥ purāṇaṃ cāpi pāyayet | arkakṣīrayutañ cāpi śīghran dadyād virecanam | śvetāṃ punarṇṇavāñ cāsyai dadyād dhutturakāyutām | snāpayet taṃ nadītīre samantrair vā catuṣpathe | bījaratnauṣadhīgarbhaiḥ kumbhaiḥ śītāmvupūritaiḥ || alarkādhipate yakṣa sārameyagaṇādhipa | alarkajuṣṭam etan me nirviṣaṃ kuru mācirāt || svāhā || dadyāt saṃśodhanan tīkṣṇaṃ mavasyāṃn tasya dehinaḥ | aśuddhasya surūḍhe pi vraṇe kupyati tadviṣam | prasupto votthito vāpi svasthaḥ trasto na sidhyati | jalatrāsī ca yo martyo daṣṭe yaś ca prakupyatīti || kalpe 6 || o ||
