The line

The five members are the proposition, the reason, the example, the application, and the conclusion. 'The mountain is fiery' is the proposition. 'Because it has smoke' is the reason. 'Whatever has smoke has fire, as the kitchen' is the example. 'And this is such' is the application. 'Therefore it is so' is the conclusion.

नेपालीमा

पाँच अवयव प्रतिज्ञा, हेतु, उदाहरण, उपनय र निगमन हुन्। पर्वत आगो भएको हो भन्ने प्रतिज्ञा हो, धुवाँ भएकाले भन्ने हेतु हो, जहाँ धुवाँ छ त्यहाँ आगो छ जस्तै भान्सा भन्ने उदाहरण हो, र यो पनि त्यस्तै हो भन्ने उपनय हो, त्यसैले यो त्यस्तै हो भन्ने निगमन हो।

Where it sits

47 says the instrument, in both kinds of inference, is the consideration of the mark, not the sentence. The sentence is how the other person is brought to make that consideration.
