[...] Now it is well-known that though we are not in a position to decide the metrical length of all syllables of the Vedic metres there is a fair chance of doing it in the case of the last few syllables formingTraces of Short E and 0 in Rgveda 9 the cadence and in other places the surrounding syllables at least indicate the preference of the Vedic poets for short or long syllables. [...] This way of analysis and classification though accounting for the majority of the cases cannot be accepted as representing the principles of either the poets themselves or of the redactors of12 Annals of the Bhandarkar Oriental Research Institute the Sarhhita.
