3.1.24
Brahma Sūtra / Adhyāya 3 / 3.1.24
अन्याधिष्ठिते पूर्ववदभिलापात्
anyādhiṣṭhite pūrvavadabhilāpāt
The line
In anyādhiṣṭhita (अन्याधिष्ठित), because of a compound: the earlier, vada (वद), and bhilāpa (भिलाप).
Where it sits
In Brahma Sūtra (सूत्र), adhyāya (अध्याय) 3. Sādhana (साधन). The means: who is fit, what is meditated on, and the soul's path. The line is short. aticireṇa (अतिचिरेण) from 3.1.23 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
Split: anyādhiṣṭhite (अन्याधिष्ठिते) + pūrva-vada-bhilāpāt (पूर्व-वद-भिलापात्)
