 Subject: [Y-Indology] definition of subhashita
To judge from anthologies, it seems that in practice the sanskrit subhashita  is always considered to consist of a single verse. I have been told a few  subhashitas that define the subhashita, but none of them mention that a  subhashita should consist of a single verse. I wonder if this criterion is made  explicit in any sanskrit text.
