। ॥ ४०९ ॥
In plain words
Using this rule I will now name each element along with the quality that has surfaced in it — hold this firmly. Space has one quality only: sound. Air has two: sound and touch.
Close to the Sanskrit
By this [rule] I shall state the element together with its manifested quality — mark it well. Space has sound as its single quality; air has sound and touch as its qualities.
