The line

If you say that in guṇepīta (गुणेपीत), then.

Where it sits

In Mīmāṃsā (मीमांसा) Sūtra (सूत्र), adhyāya (अध्याय) 10. Bādha (बाध): when a transferred detail is excluded. The line is short. vyṛddhavacanañ (व्यृद्धवचनञ्) from 10.1.24 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).

Split: guṇepīti (गुणेपीति) + cet (चेत्)
