The non-serial (in the above case is obtained by) deducting 2 (two) from (the total number of the permutations of) the series of the collection of seven (underworlds, the total number of permutations being obtained) by the mutual multiplication of the consecutive numbers beginning from, 1 (one) (and ending in seven).1 This is the non-serial. 168. The serial of space-parts of the middle world is stated to be threefold, viz. 49 (i) the serial from the first, (ii) the serial from the last, (iii) the non-serial. 169.
