Aryagiti, Ariyagiti (Vutt)

Āryāgīti (ChŚā, VR), Ariyagīti (Vutt)

The Āryagīti is similar to the Gīti in that it has the same line in 1st and 2nd position, but it has a full last gaṇa:

1^st	2^nd	3^rd	4^th	5^th	6^th	7^th	8^th
−− ⏑⏑− −⏑⏑ ⏑⏑⏑⏑	−− ⏑⏑− ⏑−⏑ −⏑⏑ ⏑⏑⏑⏑	−− ⏑⏑− −⏑⏑ ⏑⏑⏑⏑	−− ⏑⏑− ⏑−⏑ −⏑⏑ ⏑⏑⏑⏑	−− ⏑⏑− −⏑⏑ ⏑⏑⏑⏑	⏑−⏑ ⏑⏑⏑⏑	−− ⏑⏑− −⏑⏑ ⏑⏑⏑⏑	−− ⏑⏑−

The range of possibilities for the whole verse therefore are: 4 × 5 × 4 × 5 × 4 × 2 × 4 × 2 × 4 × 5 × 4 × 5 × 4 × 2 × 4 × 2, which means there are a possible 655,360,000 metres in the Āryāgīti series of metres.
