I was sent this image of the Apte 1956 edition reference to the meter.Can someone tell me what the Mm. in the reference stands for. Is it Mm. 9.11. refering to some verse?Thanks,Harry Spier_______________________________________________On Thu, Jun 11, 2020 at 11:21 PM Uskokov, Aleksandar <aleksandar.uskokov@yale.edu> wrote: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,

Subject: [INDOLOGY] Metre of gopī-gītamDear list members,
Can anyone identify the meter of the gopī-gītam (Bhāgavata X, chapter 31).See this link: https://iskcondesiretree.com/page/gopi-gita
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
