वेद स्वरूप विमर्श (स्वामी करपात्री जी महाराज - अपौरुषेय वेद-प्रामाण्य एवं वैदिक समन्वय)

character:
It has a loop: it looks like 'ब' or 'त'. Let's provide the most faithful reading:
"दृष्ट्वै बमथद्यन्" (or "दृष्ट्वै तमथद्यन्"). Let's check if it's 'ब' or 'त'. It looks like 'ब' because the loop is closed on the left. But 'त' in this font sometimes touches. Let's look at 'त' in "तत्र" (line 13) or "भवति" (line 13).
Actually, "दृष्ट्वै बमथद्यन्" is very clear visually.

Let's check line 17:
"'यत्काम ऋषिार'त्यस्यायमर्थः" vs "'यत्काम ऋषिरि'त्यस्यायमर्थः":
Wait, look at the end of "'यत्काम ऋषि":
Wait, is it "ऋषिरि'त्यस्यायमर्थः"?
Look at the character after 'ऋषि':
It has an 'इ' matra!
Look: there is a curve going to the left over 'र': र + इ = रि!
And then a single quote: '!
So it is: 'यत्काम ऋषिरि'त्यस्यायमर्थः-
Wait, let's look:
ऋ (ri) - षि (shi) - रि (ri) - ' (quote) - त्य (tya) - स्या (syaa) - य (ya) - म
