242 KĀVYAPRAKĀŚA साकाङ्क्षोपद्युक्तः सहचरभिन्नः प्रकाशितविरुद्धः । विध्यनुवादायुक्तस्त्यक्तपुनःस्वीकृतोऽश्लीलः ॥ ५७ ॥ दुष्ट इति संबध्यते । क्रमेणोदाहरणम्— (१) अतिविततगगनसरणिप्रसरणपरिमुक्तविश्रमानन्दः । मरुदुल्लासितसौरभकमलाकरहासकृद्रविर्जयति ॥ २५५ ॥ अत्रातिविततत्वादयोऽनुपादानेऽपि प्रतिपाद्यमानमर्थं न बाधन्त इत्यपुष्टाः न त्वसंगताः पुनरुक्ता वा ॥ The meaning is—(1) irrelevant, (2) obscure, (3) inconsistent, (4) tautophonous, (5) irregular, (6) vulgar, (7) dubious, (8) inconsequential, (9) opposed to prevailing notions, (10) opposed to scientific notions, (11) monotonous, (12) too unspecific, (13) too specific, (14) too restricted, (15) too unrestricted, (16) incomplete, (17) misplaced, (18) mismatched, (19) of repugnant implication, (20) with improper predicate, (2) with improper adjunct, (22) resuming the concluded, and (23) indecorous. 55-57 The ‘meaning’ here referred to is to be understood as the ‘defective’ meaning. The following are the examples of the defects of mean- ing in due order :— (1) ‘Having renounced the pleasures of ease during his constant journey through the very wide-spread ethereal path, and making to smile the lotus which has its fragrance wafted by the breeze—the sun shines resplendent.’ The epithets ‘very wide-spread’ (‘path’) and the rest are such that even if they were dropped, there would be no harm done to the sense ; hence they are ‘irrelevant’— not ‘inconsistent’ or ‘tautological’.
