शेषभक्षाश् च तद्वत्
śeṣabhakṣāś ca tadvat
The line
A compound: the rest, what remains over, and bhakṣa (भक्ष) and, like that.
Where it sits
In Mīmāṃsā (मीमांसा) Sūtra (सूत्र), adhyāya (अध्याय) 10. Bādha (बाध): when a transferred detail is excluded. The line is short. eṣkartṛkeṇa (एष्कर्तृकेण) from 10.2.28 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
Split: śeṣa-bhakṣāḥ (शेष-भक्षाः) + ca (च) + tadvat (तद्वत्)
