काव्यमीमांसा (महाकवि राजशेखर - कवि-रहस्य एवं देश-विभाग सटीक)

SIXTH ADHYĀYA 163 द्वन्द्वोऽस्मि द्विगुरस्मि च गृहे न मे etc. is from the B. Ms. and the meaning of the verse will be this:—The house-holder says that though his family consists only of two members and a couple of cows, there is no reduction in household expenditure; he asks his servant, therefore, to work more in order that his labour may enrich him with a good quantity of paddy. This idea is not brought out by any other reading of this verse now available. *[ l. 12. Cf. एवं हि श्रूयते-बृहस्पतिरिन्द्राय दिव्यं वर्षसहस्रं प्रतिपदोक्तानां शब्दानां शब्दपारायणं प्रोवाच। नान्तं जगाम। बृहस्पतिश्च प्रवक्ता। इन्द्रश्चाध्येता। दिव्यं वर्षसहस्रमध्ययनकालः। न चान्तं जगाम। प्रियतद्धिता दाक्षिणात्याः ( महाभाष्य-पस्पशा ) ]. l. 17. तेषाम etc.—These five kinds of words, when used in constructions according to special rules for their application, enrich the sentence. Here and in the next verse the word आख्यात denotes a sentence and it is not used in its usual signification of a verb. ll. 21–25. Here, the author defines वाक्य or sentence which according to him is an arrangement of words capable of conveying to others the desire of the composer. The followers of Udbhaṭa are of opinion that sentences have three distinct functions in expressing their meanings. These three functions, interconnect the meanings of words or पदार्थ and this connection is known as वाक्यार्थ. The connecting links of the words are supplied by the case- terminations or विभक्तिs which are either present, or absent at the end of the words as required by Samāsa rules. उपपदविभक्ति is a case- ending which is due to the presence of another noun; such as the चतुर्थी, due to the combination of nouns नमः स्वस्ति etc. कारकविभक्ति is a case-ending which has direct connection only with the verb. *[ l. 26. नमस्तस्मै. No. 7. of the सुभाषितावलि ]. Page. 23. l. 1. The power, inherent in the words without case-endings as in a compound, to express the sense of the omitted case-termi- nations etc. is what is called here the S'akti. In this verse, there are six words in the बहुव्रीहि compound and they retain the power of expressing अन्यपदार्थ with the meaning of one or the other of the six case-endings from द्वितीया to सप्तमी. e. g. वित्रस्ताः शत्रवः यस्मात् । स्पृहयालुः लोकः यस्मै । प्रपन्नाः सामन्ताः यम् । l. 5. In this verse also, the connecting case-terminations of the words कण्ठ, दोलायित etc. are supplied by the same words which retain
