The extent(gati)²⁵ of tāra should be known up to the fourth, fifth or seventh svara from the amśa, it is not desirable beyond that." (NŚ XXVIII.70)

[4. The definition of mandra]

[Anu. 125]

Now mandra is being said - mṛdu²⁶ (lit. soft, here low) svara is mandra. And the extent (gati) of mandra is threefold, viz. amśaparā (followed by amśa), nyāsaparā (followed by nyāsa) and apanyāsaparā (followed by apanyāsa). The compound²⁷ bahuvrihi operates here (and the meaning is that which is followed by amśa svara i.e. that which precedes the amśa). The svara that comes before that (amśa), is mandra. As in dhaivatī²⁸ - dha - dha - ni - dha - ma-pa-dha-mā. Mā-mā-mā. Thus the apanyāsa²⁹ svara is (operative) here. Similar is the case with nyāsa 30 svara.

[5. The definition of sadava]

[Anu. 126]

Now şādava is being said - (a structure of) six svaras is şādava.³ Since it is related to (or operates in) fourteenfold jatis,⁷ four jatis are always complete and hence, on account of their absence, it (sādava)31 has forty-seven varieties⁸ and similarly has said Bharata -
