As I wrote in my earlier mail, I noted down the sthOtra from audio cassette
by listening to it some hundred times. I verified the chandas and seems okay.
Still there might be some mistakes beyond my knowledge. I am giving
the RTS version here. It's available in RTS and vengi X-font at my website.
Some of the mistakes I found were mentioned in my previous mail.
