   • c. 500 AD, Kaccāyana, Pālivyākaraṇaṃ [Pali Grammar]‎^[1] (overall work in Pali), page 7; republished as Satish Chandra Acharyya Vidyabhusana, editor, Kaccayana's Pali Grammar (edited in Devanagari character and translated into English), Calcutta, Bengal: Mahabodhi Society, 1901:

     तत्थ सन्धिं कत्तुकामो पुब्बब्यञ्जनं अधोठितं अस्सरं कत्या सरञ्च उपरि कत्‍वा सरेन वियोजये।

     Tattha sandhiṃ kattukāmo pubbavyañjanaṃ adhoṭhitaṃ assaraṃ katyā sarañca upari katvā sarena viyojaye.

     One wishing to perform sandhi should make the preceding consonant vowelless and placed before and should make the vowel follow and unlink the vowel there.
