Patala 16, verse 72:
"तत्पूर्वं रक्षितं शुल्वं शिलया च तथा युतम् ।
अन्धमूषागतं ध्मातं जायते हेम शोभनम् ॥ ७२ ॥"

Wait, or "तत्पूर्वं रञ्जितं"?
Look at the footnote:
"(1) तत्पूर्वंरञ्जितं, a variant in D."
Wait! Let's zoom in on footnote 1:
( 1 ) त त्पू र्व्वं र ञ्जि तं , a variant in D.
Wait, look at the letter after र in footnote 1:
Look at the top of that letter:
It has the i-matra.
Look at the consonant:
Wait! Is that consonant क्ष or ञ्ज?
Let's look at the main text line 1:
The consonant is क्ष or ञ्ज?
Wait, look at both:
Line 1: त त्पू र्व्वं र [?] तं ¹ शु ल्वं
Wait, look at the footnote marker ¹ in line 1:
It is right after the second word!
Now look at the footnote 1:
"(1) तत्पूर्वंरक्षितं, a variant in D." or "(1) तत्पूर्वंरञ्जितं, a variant in D."
Wait, let's look at the letter in footnote 1
