Where it sits

In Mīmāṃsā (मीमांसा) Sūtra (सूत्र), adhyāya (अध्याय) 5. Order. Sequence is fixed by the order of the words, and by other rules when the words do not decide. The line is short. vikṛteḥ (विकृतेः) from 5.4.22 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).

Split: dvaiyahakālye (द्वैयहकाल्ये) + tu (तु) + yathā-anyāyam (यथा-अन्यायम्)
