¹ Two kinds of *bhāvas* are generally enumerated, namely, *sthāyin* and *vyabhichārin*, the former numbers 8 or 9 corresponding to 8 or 9 *rasas*, and the latter numbers 33 or 34; but here the figure required is 12 as is assured by the details given in the following lines. This is stated (in line 9) to be the largest type of the nine *tāla* system, the other two types being of 110, 108 parts. According to the general rule the smallest type will be the nine *tāla* proper, being nine times the face of 12 parts.
