11.1.66
Mīmāṃsā Sūtra / Adhyāya 11 / 11.1.66
न विधेश् चोदितत्वात्
na vidheś coditatvāt
The line
Not of an injunction, because of coditatva (चोदितत्व).
Where it sits
In Mīmāṃsā (मीमांसा) Sūtra (सूत्र), adhyāya (अध्याय) 11. One performance serving many purposes, and when the acts stay separate. The line is short. kva (क्व) from 11.1.65 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
Split: na (न) + vidheḥ (विधेः) + coditatvāt (चोदितत्वात्)
