ANALYSIS
The phraseology of the programme (text before "tam jahā'') follows three different formulas:
$$21-23, 31 $S20A, 24-25, 27 $9 (23), 29-30
vocative, cauvvihe pannatte, tam jahā: vocative, cauvvihe catch-word pannatte, tam jahā: catch-word duvihe pannat te, tam jahā:
%52 follows the second formuia, 833 the third formula (but "se ya PADI BANDHE"); 9826 and 32 are irregular in their wording. There are no points of agreement between davvao (formulas: "evam khalu mae ..." and "se samāsao ...") and davva-loga. - Deviations from the standard set of determinants (davva, khetta, kāla, bhāva) are more numerous in davva-loga than in davvao (see the list of Entries). - Apart from $33, the compound formula "davva-loga" is found everywhere (also in 52). Within the execution, the tendency of forming compounds continues in the majority of cases, but only the compound in the programme is found practically everywhere so that it can be used as an element of the definition. There are some remote parallels to the compound formula outside the niksepa area.
In the case of the execution, we have to distinguish between $26 (slightly irregular), $28, 932 (metrical, text not intact), 933 on the one hand, and the remaining niksepas (52 may also be considered) on the other. 20A, 9921-25, 27, 29-31, and 52 are characterized by the "repeated question". In most of these nikṣepas, davva-loga etc. (catch-word plus determinant) are subdivided into a number of sub-terms (subdivisions) with an additional member added at the beginning of the compound. Below we supply for the eleven cases the phrase introducing the "repeated question" and two words of the answer (numeral adjective and first subdivision): -

3827 and 31 have only been included by virtue of the "repeated question", but the remaining nine nikṣepas show a uniform pattern in the reply to the question. Apart from a minor difference in 931 (kaiviha - kai), the introductory phrase of the "repeated quest
