86 PAUMACARIU (7). Scheme. 11+14 (theoretically 12+14). Occurence. 2. (55., 70.) Sandhis. 2 96, d, 6 10b, d, 10 9b, d, 14 9b, d end in a long and it is not possible to make them contain more than 14 moras. 13 9 b, d actu- ally contain 13 moras. All the other Ghattās of the 2. Sandhi have actually 14 moras in their even Pädas. So on the assumption that all these Ghattās are composed in the same metre, the even Pada has got to be uniformly of 14 moras. If the short end syllable of the Pādas is counted long, the measure would be 12+14. This is the scheme of Avaduvahaa as described at SC. VI 115', Räj. 128, Ch. VI 19,45. The odd Pādas (6-1-4+u) are identical in structure with the even Pada of the Dohā. The four-moraic Gana is most frequently ul- the last two moras having only once the form uu. Hence its cha- racteristic end is - U. The 14 moras of the even Padas are divisible as 4 + 4 + 4 +- 2. It is not possible to constitute the first Gana with 6 or 5 moras. The end is generally - ty, thrice UU. Jagana is found in the 2. four-moraic Gana only. The form — is preferred by all the four-moraic Gaņas, it being most frequent in the 3. Gana. The form --- Ut is not found in the 2. and 3. Ganas. This suggests a dactylic rhythm. The odd Pädas of this metre are structurally different from the odd Pādas of the previous two Ghattā metres. It is quite possi- ble to suggest that excepting the Ghattās of Kadavakas 2, 6, 10 and 14, the others have the scheme 12 -+ 15 and hence the metre is Premavilāsa (SC. 118; Rāj. 129; Ch. VI 19, 46). This Ghatta is used also in RC. 12, 22, 59, 102; MP. 86 has its Ghattās in a metre which has the scheme 11 + 14. But the scheme of the even Pādas there appears to be 6 + 4 + 4. In PC. 2 13 9 bd the last words are read by all the Mss. as ņāhu and avarāhu. They are emended as ņāho and avaraho to make the requisite number of 14 noras. 18). Scheme 11 (or 12) + 12. Occurrence. 5. (23, 24, 62.) Sandhis. SC. VII defines in the beginning certain special Ap. metres, connected possibly in some way with the construction of the Ap. epic, which is described just next in the same chapter. SC. VIII 7 states that there are seven types of Chaddanjās and three types of Ghattās" and SC. VIII 8-29 define and illustrate them. SC. VIII 26 describes Ghattā II as follows: 'savvāņahom pi paāņan, ti-nava-kalão huvanti ghattā-lakkhana erisa, govālä vilavanti i 'All the Pādas have three plus nine (i.e. twelve) moras; such definition of the Ghattā (of the second type) is stated by Abhiras (lit. cowherds)'. (1) SC. treats Duvala and its varieties Avaduvahaya and Uvaduvahaya at two different place (SC. IV 7-13: VI 113-117). First they are treated as inde- pendent metres. Afterwards they are described as varicties of Ghattås. These are to be distinguished from each other. (2) Here the designations Chaddania and Ghattă are given to some definite me- tres. They are not here generic names synonymous with Dhruva, Dhruvaka and Ghatta. Further SC. VIII 35 ine.itions Ghatta and Chaddania among the metres used in the beginning of a Sandhi and the structures of these Ghatta and Chaddania are different from the ones given in the beginning of Ch. VIII. (3) The text is corrupt. paana, kaian. lakkhanı and erisu can be suggested an emendations.
