The phrases

Two nominatives. The one who enjoys the three is the lord of the vīra (वीर). Kṣemarāja (क्षेमराज) reads vīra (वीर) as the senses. The sūtra (सूत्र)'s word is vīra (वीर).

Sanskrit in this line

bhoktā (भोक्ता) is the nominative of an agent noun in tṛ (तृ). vīra (वीर) and īśa (ईश) join as vīreśa (वीरेश), short a (अ) plus ī (ई) becoming e (ए).

Say it back

Say who enjoys the three, and say the commentary's reading of vīra (वीर) as a reading, after the word itself.
