Mīmāṃsā Sūtra / Adhyāya 3 / 3.3.19
नकृतेरेकसंयोगात्
nakṛter ekasaṃyogāt
The line
Of not made, done, because of a compound: one, and conjunction.
Where it sits
In Mīmāṃsā (मीमांसा) Sūtra (सूत्र), adhyāya (अध्याय) 3. Śeṣa (शेष), the subsidiary. How you tell what serves a rite and what the rite serves. The line is short. pakṣe-ṇārtha-kṛtasya (पक्षे-णार्थ-कृतस्य) from 3.3.18 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
