OP THE HINDUS. 4.6^ 



6th., Chacj-anta. 



The use of these Murchhanas is, in my opinion, to 

 teach the learner to rise ar> octave by tones and semi- 

 tones ; and to descend again by the same notes ; and to 

 rise and fall by greater intervals, directly, by omitting 

 the intermediate notes ; in fhort the practice of solmi- 

 sation.
