चतुर्थी कण्डिका चैव द्वात्रिंशत्कलिका स्मृता । कलाभिरेवं निर्दिष्टा कण्डिका वर्धमानके ॥ ७६॥
The fourth Kaṇḍikā is said to consist of thirty-two Kalās. Thus, in the Vardhamāna, the Kaṇḍikās are defined by their respective Kalās.
english translation
केवलं मार्गसम्भूता स्वालयोपाङ्गवर्जिता । एकद्वित्रिचतुर्योगात्ताभिरासारितानि तु ॥ ७७॥
These (Kaṇḍikās), arising solely from the Mārga, and devoid of the subsidiary elements of the Svālaya, are produced through their combinations in ones, twos, threes, and fours.
english translation
वर्धमाने प्रसूयन्ते मार्गतालाङ्गयोगतः । प्रथमां कण्डिकां कृत्वा बालतालप्रयोजितम् ॥ ७८॥
With the progressive increase (they) are produced through the combination of the parts of the Mārga-tāla. Beginning with the first Kaṇḍikā, the Bālatāla is applied.
english translation
अन्तिमार्धकलाहीनं कुर्यादेवं कनिष्ठकम् । द्वितीयां कण्डिकां कृत्वा प्रथमा सकला यदि ॥ ७९॥
One should make the final half of the Kalā deficient in this manner, forming the shorter (bāla) Tāla. After completing the second part, the first part should be performed with all its Kalās intact.
english translation
योज्यते पूर्वतालेन तदा तत्स्याल्लयान्तरम् । वर्धमानं विना चित्रे न हि वृत्तौ लयान्तरम् ॥ ८०॥
When it is then combined with the previous Tāla in all its Kalās, it becomes the Layāntara (tarita). In the Vardhamāna, the Layāntara should never be performed in the Vṛtti, but only in the Citra Mārga.
