CATUBHĀṆAVĀRAPĀḶI – ĀNANDAJOTI BHIKKHU

Catubhāṇavārapāḷi

Ānandajoti Bhikkhu

At all stages of the language, the most important and prevalent metre has been the Siloka, which has a great deal of flexibility, and seems to be equally well adapted to aphorism, question & answer, narrative, and epic. In the Catubhāṇavārapāḷi, as can be seen from the table above, Siloka accounts for about 85% of all the verses found in the text.

A Siloka verse normally consists of 4 lines (sometimes 6) with 8 syllables to the line, organized in dissimilar pairs which are repeated to make up a verse (note that owing to resolution sometimes a Siloka line may contain 9 syllables).
