When it (ṣāḍjī) is sung as hexatonic, then the sparseness59 of ṛṣabha has to
be brought about, (and) there is abundance of the remaining svaras.9
[Anu. 147]
And it has ten amsas.10 That is thus - one suddha, five vikṛtas in the complete
state and four ṣāḍavas2, because when
gāndhāra is amśa, it excludes the
formation of ṣāḍava. The amśas have been written as such so that they
become clear.
There is the state of śuddhā with ṣadja as the amśa and ṣadja is the
apanyāsa.
In its
sampūrņa state there are eight-fold
lakṣaṇas (ṣāḍava and auḍava being
irrelevant). In the sadava state (they are) nine-fold (
auduvita being
irrelevant). Ṣādjī should be known as four-fold in its vikṛtā (modified) state,
excluding (its) šuddhā (form).
And it has the <math>m\bar{u}rchan\dot{a}^{60}</math> beginning with
dhaivata. (The <math>t\bar{a}la</math>)

[Anu. 148]
(În
ārṣabhī)
ṛṣabha, dhaivata (and) niṣāda are the grahas3,
(they) themselves
are the amsas. They alone are apanyāsas.5 Niṣāda63 (?) is (the limit of the
extension of) tāra upto five svaras.
Ŗṣabha is the nyāsa.11 Mandra extends upto
nyāsa or upto the svara next to nyāsa. There is
sangati (concert) of şadja-
dhaivata and ṛṣabha-
gāndhāra. Ṣāḍava is devoid of ṣaḍja and
auḍuvita is
devoid of șadja-
pañcama.
In its complete state there is the sparseness of șadja,
gandhara and pancama.14 In the
auduvita form, there is the sparseness of
gāndhāra and
madhyama and the profusion of the remaining (svaras).
[Anu. 149]
And it (ārṣabhī) is ten-fold i.e., there are ten amśas.12 Śuddhā (is one), vikṛtās
in the complete state are three, in the sadava state are three and in the
auduva state are (also) three4, thus in the complete state are three, in the
ṣāḍava state are three, thus (they are ten). The
mūrchanā 64 beginning with
pañcama obtains (here).
