The line
In a compound: conduct, and confusion, not a compound: fire, ārati (आरति), strī (स्त्री), niṣa (निष), dyākro (द्याक्रो), śayā (शया), canā (चना), satkā (सत्का), rapu (रपु), and raskāra (रस्कार).
Where it sits
In Tattvārtha (तत्त्वार्थ) Sūtra (सूत्र), adhyāya (अध्याय) 9. Saṃvara (संवर) and nirjarā (निर्जरा). Stoppage, and the wearing away. The line is short. darśana-moha-antarāyayoḥ (दर्शन-मोह-अन्तराययोः) from 9.14 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
Split: cāritra-mohe (चारित्र-मोहे) + na (न) + agni-ārati-strī-niṣa-dyākro-śayā-canā-satkā-rapu-raskārāḥ (अग्नि-आरति-स्त्री-निष-द्याक्रो-शया-चना-सत्का-रपु-रस्काराः)
