The line
What is born of a predator, an elephant, a horse, or a chariot, or born of a fall from an animal or a vehicle, one should do like a weapon-wound, with movements of the body not looked after.
नेपालीमा
हिंस्रक जनावर, हात्ती, घोडा वा रथबाट जन्मेको, अथवा पशु वा सवारीबाट खसेर जन्मेकोलाई हेरचाह नगरिएका शरीरका चालसहित शस्त्रको घाउजस्तै गर्नुपर्छ।
Where it sits
Death or injury from a beast or a vehicle is acted as a wound, the limbs uncared for. The line reads śāstrakṣata (शास्त्रक्षत), in the neighborhood of śastrakṣata (शस्त्रक्षत), a weapon-wound.
