two Indras and one Surya. Yati falls on the fourth foot, as shewn by the asterisk. The prasa is as usual.
Or else; as occurs in these instances, the poet has capriciously made the yati fall on the fifth foot.

The Accara is in truth a kannadi metre and has been naturalized in very few Telugu poems.
The other species, called Madhur-accara is defined as containing one Surya foot, four Indras, and an additional syllable: or, in the usual phrase, one Surya, three Indras, and one Chandra. The prasa as usual: the yati falls on the initial of the third Indra. Instances—
