After-care: warm bath and light liquid food

Despite its printed heading, this verse gives after-care: a patient overcome by mada and burning whose body has been continually troubled by cold water drops is bathed with warm water and, once his kindled fire is seen, fed light, fire-kindling, liquid food. The commentary reads the cause as excess drinking; the editor's footnote prefers प्राणातिपात, a life-threatening state after excessive sweating.
