second half 4+4+4/4+4+-+4+
GPATUT being forbidden in the odd Ts. This variety with the caesura after the third Tot is called Yell, while the one without such a caesura is called fauci. In our text in only the first half of st.s 6, 7, 16, 40, 84, 93, 126, 127, 153, 172 and 212 the caesura fails to recur after the 12. mora. Hence these Tents are of the Talaysi variety. Similarly because in st. 152 the 12-moraic caesura is wanting in the second half only, it is of the penfaucit variety. Lastly the caesura being absent from both the halves of st.s 72 and 116 they are of the सर्वविपुला variety. The rest are पथ्याs.

21. ifsfor ( pfaft). Occurrence : 171.
Only VJS. III 20 and the text and the comm. of the SR. (st. 170d) support the name ifs-i (or isfo). It is nothing but the commonly known a2 with the scheme -ww.i. e. 4 Tus. VJS. IV 54 again defines this metre under the name 1974 (= pes). The reason perhaps is that at III 20 it is treated as one of the facets, while at IV 54, independently. Compare the similar
