"On the second Aredus, thirty stripes with the Aspahe-astra, thirty
stripes with the Sraosho-karana; on the third, fifty stripes with the
Aspahe-astra, fifty stripes with the Sraosho-karana; on the fourth,
seventy stripes with the Aspahe-astra, seventy stripes with the
Sraosho-karana; on the fifth, ninety stripes with the Aspahe-astra,
ninety stripes with the Sraosho-karana."
O Maker of the material world, thou Holy One! If a man commit an Aredus
for the sixth time, without having atoned for the preceding, what
penalty shall he pay?
Ahura Mazda answered:--
"He is a Peshotanu: two hundred stripes with the Aspahe-astra, two
hundred stripes with the Sraosho-karana."
O Maker of the material world, thou Holy One! If a man commit an Aredus,
and refuse to atone for it, what penalty shall he pay?
Ahura Mazda answered:--
"He is a Peshotanu: two hundred stripes with the Aspahe-astra, two
hundred stripes with the Sraosho-karana."
O Maker of the material world, thou Holy One! If a man smite another and
hurt him sorely, what is the penalty that he shall pay?
Ahura Mazda answered:--
"Thirty stripes with the Aspahe-astra, thirty stripes with the
Sraosho-karana; the second time, fifty stripes with the Aspahe-astra,
fifty stripes with the Sraosho-karana; the third time, seventy stripes
with the Aspahe-astra, seventy stripes with the Sraosho-karana; the
fourth time, ninety stripes with the Aspahe-astra, ninety stripes with
the Sraosho-karana.
