Philological commentary
a1 Uv.25.8b yo naro hy upanahyati
a2 Uv.25.8d sad evaṃ saṃgamāt satām
a3 Uv.25.9b kurvāṇam upasevate
a4 Uv.25.9d avarṇaś cāsya vardhate
a5 Uv.25.10c śaro liptaḥ kalāpasthān
a6 Uv.25.10f naiva pāpasakhā bhavet
b1 Uv.25.11b yādṛśaṃ copasevate
b2 Uv.25.11d saṃsevā hy asya tādṛśī; the double "• •" just fills the line.
b3 Uv.25.12b-c dṛṣṭvā saṃpākam ātmanaḥ / asanto nopaseveta
b4 Uv.25.13a yāvajjīvaṃ pi ced bālaḥ; the wording here slightly deviates from Bernhard’s text: we expect °vaṃ pi instead of °vam api with one syllable more.
b5 Uv.25.13c-d na sa dharmaṃ vijānāti darvī sūparasān iva, here apparently dārvī (the akṣara dā is clear)
b6 Uv.25.14b paṇḍitāṃ paryupāsate
