14. Gautama XIX, 9-10. The Gosava sacrifice is an Ek4ha; see Katy4yana Srauta Sitra XXII, 11, 3. P2 212 BAUDHAYANA. II, 1, 1. 5. Or he may bathe (with the priests) on the completion of a horse-sacrifice (offered by somebody else). . 6. Now they quote also (the following verses) : ‘He who unintentionally slays a Brahmaza becomes sinful according to the sacred law. The sages declare that he may be purified (if he did it) unintentionally. But no expiation is found for a wilful murderer.’ 7. ‘He who has raised his hand (against a Brahmaza), shall perform a Krzé&hra penance, an Atikvzkkhra penance if he strikes, a Kvzkkhra and a K4ndrayaza if blood flows. Therefore let him neither raise his hand nor cause blood to flow.’ 8. (For killing) a Kshatriya (he shall keep the normal vow of continence) during nine years, 9. (For killing) a Vaisya during three (years), 10. (For killing) a Sddra during one year, 11. Likewise for killing a woman. 12. (The penance for killing) a woman who has bathed after temporary uncleanness (is) the same (as that) for (the murder of) a Brahmaza. 5. Gautama XXII, 9. 6. Manu XI, go. 4. Yagiavalkya III, 293. Regarding the penances named, see Vasishtha XXI, 20, XXIV, 1-2, XXIII, 45, and below, II, 1, 2, 38, IV, 5, 6. 8-10. Vasishka XX, 31-33. The words ‘shall keep the normal vow of continence’ have been inserted in accordance with Govinda’s explanation, which apparently is based on Gautama XXII, 14. But it is also possible that Baudh4yana, like Vishnu (L, 15) _ and others, may have intended murderers of Kshatriyas, Vaisyas, &c., too, to perform the penance prescribed above, Sfitra 4, only for shorter periods. 11. Gautama XXII, 17. Govinda is of opinion that the word ka, ‘likewise,’ is intended to include ‘worthless’ Kshatriyas and Vaisyas. 12. Vasish/ha XX, 34-35. II, 1, t. PENANCES. : 213 13. He who has defiled the bed of a Guru shall place himself on a heated iron bed, 14. Or embrace a red hot image (of a woman), 15. Or cutting off his organ together with the testicles and holding them in his joined hands, he shall walk towards the south-west until he falls down (dead). 16. A thief shall go to the king with flying hair, carrying on his shoulder a club of Sindhraka wood (and say), ‘Strike me with that.’ (Then the king) shall strike him. 17. Now they quote also (the following verses) : ‘A thief shall go to the king carrying a club on his shoulder (and say to him), ‘Punish me with that, O king, remembering the duty of Kshatriyas.’ ‘Whether he be punished or be pardoned, the thief is freed from his guilt. But if the king does not punish him, that guilt of the thief falls on him.’ 18. If he has drunk (the spirituous liquor called) Sura, he shall scald himself to death with hot (liquor of the) same (kind). 19. For unintentionally drinking (Sura), he shall perform Kvzééfra penances during three months and be initiated again, 20, And (on this second initiation) the cutting (of

Now they quote also (the following verses): ‘A Br&hmaza, Kshatriya, or Vaisya who has unintentionally drunk (the spirituous liquor called) Varumt or has swallowed urine or faeces must be initiated a second time.’ 22. ‘But he who drinks water which has stood in a vessel, used for keeping Surd, shall live six days on milk in which (leaves of) the Sankhapushpt plant have been boiled.’ 23. If (a pupil) who is employed by his teacher (on some errand) meets with his death, (the teacher) shall perform three Kvzé&hra penances. 24. The same (penance) is prescribed for not finishing (the education of the pupil). 25. If a student assists at the burial of anybody except (at that of his) mother, of his father, or of his teacher, he must begin his vow afresh. 26. If a (student) is sick, he may, at his pleasure, eat all the fragments of his teacher's meal as medicine. 27. He may physic himself with any (medicine) which he may desire. 21. Vishzu LI, 2-4. 22. Vishau LI, 23. 23. Vasish/hka XXIII, ro. 24. ‘Finishing (the education of the pupil, samskrztam), i.e. teaching him the rules of purification, of conduct, and so forth; failing (to do) that (is called) not finishing (the education of the pupil). For that (omission) the same (penance), i.e. three Krzkkfras (are to be) performed.’—Govinda. 25. Vasish¢ha XXIII, 7-8. ‘Assists at a burial (savakarma), i.e. lays out a corpse, and so forth (alamkarandi), or carries it out, and so forth.’—Govinda. 26.

When he is unable to move, he may worship the sun, after he has risen, reciting this (Ak verse) : ‘A swan, dwelling in purity.’ 29. When he has spent his manly strength in the day-time, let him thrice drink water that reaches his heart, reciting the verses which contain the word retas. 30. A student who approaches a woman (is called) an Avakirzin, 31. Let him offer an ass (in the place of) a sacrificial animal. 32.

The sacrificial meat-cake (purod4sa shall be offered) to Nirvzti, or to the R&kshasas, or to Yama. 33. It is declared in the Veda, ‘The piece to be eaten by the sacrificer (prasitra, shall be taken) from the organ (of the animal); and the (other) portions shall be offered in water.’ 34. ‘Or he may also heap (fuel) on the fire in the night of the new moon, perform the preparatory rites required for the Darvihoma, and offer two (substances) which are forbidden even to his teacher, e. g. garlic, and so forth.’ For a Smriti declares, ‘ He shall protect himself by every means.’—Govinda. 28. ‘Unable to move,’ i.e. sick. This is a penance to be performed by a sick student when he is unable to fulfil the rules enjoining the morning and evening prayers, and the like; and it applies to other men also because there is no objection. Regarding the Mantra, see Taittiriya Samhita I, 8, 15, 2. 29. The rule refers to intercourse with a wife in the day-time ; see . Vishzu LIT, 4. The Retasyas occur Taittiriya Aranyaka I, 30. 30.
