Bryan,

Do you have the Patna verse number in M. Cone's edition in JPTS XIII
101ff ? The Pali version ref. is Dhp 6. I have been looking at the
meaning and etymology of "nirutti" which I hope to comment on later
when I have more information.

(jayaamatha),  which I can't figure out. Does anyone know the form?
The Paali equvialent ("yamaamase") is a first person pl. imperative
per PED.
