Dear friends,

Has any of you encountered a meter with the following structure:

a: ja bha ja ra

b: ya ta ta ga ga

c: ma ma ya ya

d: ma ta ta ga ga

Quarters c and d correspond to vaiśvadevī and śālinī, but a and b I cannot identify in Apte, though b seems a variation of śālinī with the first syllable laghu.

Any help appreciated.

Best wishes,

Aleksandar
