Thank you Aleksandar.  I've also been informed offlist that this meter  but with the names  Rājahaṃsī and Vibhūṣaṇā is in the  three volume 1959 edition published in Pune by Prasad Prakashan, with editors P. K. Gode and C. G. Karve. . I was looking in Apte's 1890 edition where it didn't appear.  Apparently the modern editors expanded  the metrical section.

Dear Harry, 

Vaṁśīdhara in his comment on the first verse writes: kanakamañjarī naś ca rau lagau iti sūtrāt. The definition scans right, so to his mind the meter is Kanakamañjarī. I don’t know which sūtra he has in mind.

Best wishes,
Aleksandar

Subject: [INDOLOGY] Metre of gopī-gītam
 
Dear list members,

Can anyone identify the meter of the gopī-gītam (Bhāgavata X, chapter 31).

It is 11 syllable's per line but as far as I can see it is different from the 11 syllable metres in Apte's dictionaries appendix.
Thanks,
Harry Spier
