Where it sits
The file marks the second quarter in brackets, a list of the other six notes. Ṣaḍja (षड्ज) is named in the first quarter as the one they begin with. These are the seven svara (स्वर) notes. Sangeet Yatra practices them at the instrument. This verse names the notes. It does not assign a rasa (रस) or an hour.
