The line

A compound: aprā (अप्रा), made, done, and tvāna (त्वान), maitrāvaruṇasyābhakṣatva (मैत्रावरुणस्याभक्षत्व).

Where it sits

In Mīmāṃsā (मीमांसा) Sūtra (सूत्र), adhyāya (अध्याय) 10. Bādha (बाध): when a transferred detail is excluded. The line is short. agnīdhaś (अग्नीधश्) from 10.7.17 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
