Where it sits
In Mīmāṃsā (मीमांसा) Sūtra (सूत्र), adhyāya (अध्याय) 8. Transfer by specific indications. The signs in a variant rite's own sentence say which model it borrows from. The line is short. sarveṣāṃ (सर्वेषां) from 8.4.3 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
Split: juhoti-codanā-nāṃa (जुहोति-चोदना-नांअ) + vā (वा) + tat-saṃyogāt (तत्-संयोगात्)
