CHAPTER IV 93 अत्र तदादिपदैरनुभवैकगोचरा अर्थाः प्रकाश्यन्ते । यथा वा मुग्धे मुग्धतयैव नेतुमखिलः कालः किमारभ्यते मानं धत्स्व धृतिं बधान ऋजुतां दूरे कुरु प्रेयसि । सख्यैवं प्रतिबोधिता प्रतिवचस्तामाह भीतानना नीचैः शंस हृदि स्थितो हि ननु मे प्राणेश्वरः श्रोष्यति॥७६॥ (३) अत्र भीताननेति । एतेन हि नीचैःशंसनविधानस्य युक्तता गम्यते । भावादीनां पदप्रकाश्यत्वेधिकं न वैचित्र्यमिति न तदुदाह्रियते । 'That loveliness, that brilliancy, that beauty, and that sweetness of speech,—were all like nectar at that time ; but now it is all a terrible fever'. Here the term, 'that' used several times, suggests that the things spoken of are such as can be only seen (and cannot be described). Another example of the same— "O beautiful one, why do you proceed to pass the whole time in mere simplicity? Have self-respect ; hold out with patience ; set aside your artless behaviour towards your lover" ;—on being thus exhorted by her friend, the girl, replied with fear-stricken face—"Talk low, lest the Lord of my life residing in my heart should overhear what your are saying". Here the epithet 'with fear-stricken face' suggests the propriety of 'talking low'. Emotion [and Aberration of Passion, Aberration of Emotion, Allayment of Emotion, Conjuncture of Emotions and Admixture of Emotions] do not acquire any additional charm, when suggested by a single word [to the same extent as that of 'Passion' does]; hence examples of these have not been cited.
