Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
A blind man, an idiot, (a cripple) who moves with the help of a board, a man full seventy years old, and he who confers benefits on.SVotriyas, shall not be compelled by any (king) to pay a tax. not in the sense of ' order,' but of ' hermitage,' and ' twice-born men' in the sense of 'hermits.'
