4. (mora 11., or morae 11.-12.) is made up of one or two short syllables according as the caesura falls after the 11. or the 12. mora. The proportion of the two is

Exceptions - 56d, 57a, 58a (all the three occurring in the section listing tree-names), 130b and 154b have the caesura after the 14. mora. Cf. the 4 of the 14-moraic caesura treated at Sc. VIII 50 and Ch. V 2. The heavy syllable standing in the place of morae 11.-12. in 296 () and 55c (a) is resoluble into two shorts in accordance with Grammar 28 (cf. 41 f).
1 A word of explanation seems necessary for this spinning out of the five (6 +4 +4 +4 + 3) Is given by the are into seven. The two implications of the principal of -division in general are that firstly the closing mora of a preceding TT and the opening mora of the following it cannot be replaced by a heavy syllable i. e. the separate individuality of each of the two morae is to be preserved (cf. AM 19) and secondly, the common patterns of the various constituents when viewed in a lot are to be indicative of the general rhythm of the metre if any. In the case of the THI stanzas in the SR. the formal analysis shows that it conduces to precision and lucidity to split up the first and the third of the ren each into two and as this can be done without any detriment to the underlying principal, seven Пs are set up. For precedences Ch. V 31 versus 32 (Cf. Hp. p. 189) and Alsdorf's treatment of the 3 (see 11 below) can be pointed to.
