Mīmāṃsā Sūtra / Adhyāya 10 / 10.5.24
धूर्येष्वपीति चेत्
dhūryeṣv apīti cet
The line
If you say that dhūryeṣv (धूर्येष्व्) even, then.
Where it sits
In Mīmāṃsā (मीमांसा) Sūtra (सूत्र), adhyāya (अध्याय) 10. Bādha (बाध): when a transferred detail is excluded. The line is short. sāmnāṃ (साम्नां) from 10.5.23 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
Split: dhūryeṣv (धूर्येष्व्) + api (अपि) + iti (इति) + cet (चेत्)
