Note 5 — Concerning the Blind-Eyed Man
Reading edition
Having heard the case, he said, “This young Heṭṭiyā did not take a wife [for himself]; he took the blind person’s wife,” and ordered them to behead the Heṭṭiyā.5 Having said, “The woman having come in dīga [marriage] to the blind person and in the meantime having endangered him, went with another man,” he ordered them to put her in a lime-kiln and burn her. Having given a little money to the blind person he told him to go.
