bahavaḥ ime vidayaḥ paṭhyante .

tatra na jñāyate kasya nityam natvam kasya vibhāṣā kasya pratiṣedhaḥ kasya iṭ iti .

ataḥ uttaram paṭhati .

yasya videḥ śnaśakau taparatve tanavacane tad u vāpratiṣedhau .

śnavikaraṇasya vibhāṣā śavikaraṇasya pratiṣedhaḥ .

śyavikaraṇāt navidhiḥ chiditulyaḥ .

śyanvikaraṇāt videḥ navidhiḥ chidinā tulyaḥ .

lugvikaraṇaḥ vali paryavapannaḥ .

lugvikaraṇaḥ vidiḥ valādau paryavapannaḥ .

eṣa evārthaḥ .

yayoḥ vidyoḥ śnaśau uktau tayoḥ natvasya vānañau .

yayoḥ tu śyaṃllukau tābhyām chidivac ca iṭ ca iṣyate .

aparaḥ āha :

vetteḥ tu viditaḥ niṣṭhā .

vidyateḥ vinnaḥ iṣyate .

vintteḥ vinnaḥ ca vittaḥ ca vittaḥ bhogeṣu vindateḥ .
