śiṣyate, could be considered normal Skt. pass. to śās-, is instructed, learns (with acc.): (dārakasahasrāṇi …) lipiṃ °ante sma LV 〔127.4〕 (prose
all mss.
Calc. śikṣante). The prec. and foll. items show that, acc. to persistent tradition, LV (and esp. in this vicinity) uses forms in śiṣy- for Skt. and usual BHS śikṣ-
