Just a small addition/correction on the reading and word-division in a
quotation from PS by Witzel. The correct text, as established by
Bhattacharya (1997), then improved by Zehnder (1999), makes the relevance
for the datvatii rajju- even more evident. It should read:


> <2.8.5a>   vyaaghraM datvataaM vayaM
> <2.8.5b>   prathamaM jambhayaamasi
> <2.8.5c>   aad +it stenam ahiM
> <2.8.5d>   yaatudhaanam atho vRkam
 (cf. ;SS 4.3.4)
