अन्येनापीति चेत्

anyenāpīti cet

The line

If you say that in anyenāpīta (अन्येनापीत), then.

Where it sits

In Mīmāṃsā (मीमांसा) Sūtra (सूत्र), adhyāya (अध्याय) 6. Who may perform. Eligibility, and the way substances are tied to an act. The line is short. audumbaryāḥ (औदुम्बर्याः) from 6.6.6 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
