Sampradana is said here to be in the order of a gap after each svara; 105 (it is) like ākṣipta, with svaras that approach or reach another106 kalā (time-unit) in (158) due course.1 107 Hasita (is known as such as it) is pronounced in a manner similar to laughter; it is dvikala 108 and pronounced twice3, it should be known like ākşiptaka (159) by the wise, being made up of gapless svaras.2 (That which) ascends in gapless svaras like hasita with three or four svaras (in each phrase) in ekakala 109 (form), should be known as one named hunkāra.

Sandhipracchādana is indeed with upward110 'throw' in a (specific) order; it is catușkala111 (with four kalās) (and) comes back in two svaras after ascending (161) another sthana (register).4 In the beginning, after having pronounced a pada 112 (syllabic unit) where there is a short varna 113 (?) composed of two svaras and (which) ascends in one (162) kalā (phrase) without a gap that is vidhuta.13 In the beginning it is arohin; (like) prastara where there is descent according to definite measure (pramāṇa),114 that is said to be udgīta alankāra.
(163)
One should ascend (in) gapless svaras like hunkāra in the other two kalās (phrases) there are two svaras each that are shaking 115 and then there are two
(164)
lower svaras. Thus should be known gatravarna in the prescription (vidhi) of varna and alankāra. With ākāra 116 and okāra other long syllables should also be combined.
(165)
ı Thus has been indicated the prescription about alankarana (ornamentation or the act of 'making adequate') pertaining to the alankara of gita (melodic rendering).8 The giti musical rendering should be ornamented with these
(166)
without conflicting with the varna.117 One should 'do' (use) an alankāra at the proper place; one should not tie the kānci (ornament for the waist) on the bosom.9 There could be many
(167)
alankāras, they should not be used without varņa.118
