CHAPTER IV 55 कृत्रिमैरपि तथानभिमन्यमानैर्विभावादिशब्दव्यपदेश्यैः ‘संयोगात्, गम्यगमकभावरूपात् अनुमीयमानोपि वस्तुसौन्दर्यबलाद्र- सनीयत्वेनान्यानुमीयमानविलक्षणः स्थायित्वेन संभाव्यमानो रत्यादिर्भावस्तत्रासन्नपि सामाजिकानां वासनया चर्व्यमाणो रस इति श्रीशङ्कुकः । through instruction and practice, and pondering over such poetry as the following— ‘ That lady, the mistress of my life, a splash of nectar to my body, unguent of camphor to my eyes, the very embodiment of the glorious longings of my heart, glided within the range of my vision ’;— ‘ Unfortunately I have to-day been separated from her, with eyes large and unsteady ; and that season has arrived wherein clouds are constantly flitting about ’; Though all these causes, effects and auxiliaries are only artificially assumed, yet they are not regarded as such, and hence they are spoken of as ‘ excitants,’ ‘ ensuants ’ and ‘ variants ’;—the ‘ saṁyoga ’, ‘ conjunction ’, of these three,—i. e., through the relation of ‘ the indicative and the indicated ’, subsisting between these three and the result- ant feeling—leads to the inference of the ‘ latent emotion ’, of Love e. g.;—though thus inferred, the emotion is by reason of the peculiar charm, different from all other objects of inference ; and hence it is recognised as something subsisting latently ; and as, though thus inferred, this emotion is recognised, through its peculiar charm, as some- thing relished, and as such different from other ordinary inferred things ; it is imagined to be subsisting latently in the actor ; and even though not really present in him, it is relished by the spectators through their predisposed tendencies.
