the preceding, what is the penalty that he shall pay?
Ahura Mazda answered:--

hundred stripes with the Sraosho-karana."

penalty that he shall pay?
Ahura Mazda answered:--
"He is a Peshotanu: two hundred stripes with the Aspahe-astra, two

O Maker of the material world, thou Holy One! If a man smite another so
that the blood come, what is the penalty that he shall pay?
Ahura Mazda answered:--
"Fifty stripes with the Aspahe-astra, fifty stripes with the
Sraosho-karana; the second time, seventy stripes with the Aspahe-astra,
seventy stripes with the Sraosho-karana; the third time, ninety stripes
with the Aspahe-astra, ninety stripes with the Sraosho-karana."

the preceding, what is the penalty that he shall pay?

hundred stripes with the Sraosho-karana."
O Maker of the material world, thou Holy One! If a man smite another so
that the blood come, and if he refuse to atone for it, what is the
