The line
Not because of a compound: ṛgvyapa (ऋग्व्यप), and a place.
Where it sits
In Mīmāṃsā (मीमांसा) Sūtra (सूत्र), adhyāya (अध्याय) 2. Which acts are different acts. The word for an action means the act, and from that the differences among rites are drawn. The line is short. sarveṣām (सर्वेषाम्) from 2.1.44 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) + ṛgvyapa-deśāt (ऋग्व्यप-देशात्)
