into fur groups of four Mātrās each, with a proviso?? that the groups don't show a 'Bha-gaña' and a 'Jagaña', or Karņa (--). What remains therefore is all laghu ( uy i. e, a "Vipragaña', or antaguru ( -) i. e. a 'Sa-gaña'. One Kadavaka, VIII 13, is in this metre.
(1) हा पुष्वजम्मि किस काई मई निहिंदसणे जं नयणई हयां। १
(७) हा पुत्त होउ दिहि दुजणहो किम वयशु निहालमि दुजणहो। । The opening of the two lines appear to be against Pingala's rule. The apparent contradiction disappears when the first syllable is resolved into The rest is proper. The last syllable of all the padas has to be regarded long, otherwise there would be only fifteen 18 syllables to a foot. Several Ghattās in our work are in this metre.
(6) Kavva or Kāvya is a metre of twentyfour Mātrās. It is thus described : 19
“There are two gaņas of six Kalā at the beginning and end (of a pāda); there are three "turangama' (i. e. gana of four matras) in the middle; the third gaña i. e. 2nd of the two turangamas being either a Jagaña (-) or Vipra ( UU). Know this to be the definition of Kavva."
This only means that there are in all twenty-four mātrās in this metre. There is one instance only of this in VII 8.
(7) Paangama or Plavangama is a metre of twenty-one syllables. There are three different definitions given, one of which suits exactly to one Kadavaka XII 12, 8 and the others in the number of Mātrās only. It is thus:30 "In every foot the first should be guru, so Pingala says without doubt. This is the metre Plavangama, with twenty-one Mātrās.
(1) पडिवन्नई वियालि वरविलयहि सिजावत्ति किय । ३
(१) पण्णु फछु हरियंदणु घुसिणु समाहरिवि । ७ In (1) only we have a laghu leading, but the rest are regular like (2). 17 Ibid p. 298 2 faca anu af 9218 gai
