In Prabodha-tika (pt. III, pp. 464-531) the topic of these metres is elaborately treated in Gujarāti. Herein on p. 535 it is observed that v. 3 furnishes us with Catuspața-bandha, v. 4 with three band has viz, vāpika, dipika and mangala-kalaša, and v. 16, 17, 21 and 34 with the following bandhas respectively :
Guccha, vrkşa, şaddala-kamala and aşța-dala-kamala.
