Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
Among the goods of every kind the eldest shall take the best (article), and (even a single chattel) which is particularly good, as well as the best of ten (animals). 'Like a kinsman/ i.e. Mike a maternal or paternal uncle'
