It is a precept of Śaunaka that the words ending in the first [members of the stop-series, i. e. voiceless unaspirated stops, should rather] end in the third [members, i. e. voiced unaspirated stops]. [Such, however, is] not the [recitational] practice. [It is] also [the precept of Śaunaka] that [the pada-final thirds, i. e. voiced unaspirated stops] have a weak articulatory contact. (pp. 106-107)
