अण् च

Thus तापसः, साहस्रः ॥ The separation of this sutra from the last is for two purposes, Ist the anuvritti of अण् runs in the subsequent sutras, which could not have been done had it been included in the last sutra, 2nd the rule of yathasankhya (1. 3. 10) would not have applied in the last sutra, had अण् been read along with विनि and इनि ॥

Vart:- The words ज्योत्स्ना &c, are governed by this rule and take अण्. As ज्योत्स्ना विद्यतेऽस्मिन् पक्षे = ज्यौत्स्नः पक्षः ॥ Similarly तामिस्रः (a kind of hell) कौण्डलः, कौतपः, वैसर्पः, and वैपादिकः ॥,
