CHAPTER X 429 न चैषापह्नुतिः प्रकृताप्रकृतोभयनिष्ठस्य साम्यस्येहासंभवात् । उदाहरणम्-- शैलेन्द्रप्रतिपाद्यमानगिरिजाहस्तोपगूढोल्लसद्- रोमाञ्चादिविसंष्ठुलाखिलविधिव्यासङ्गभङ्गाकुलः । हा शैत्यं तुहिनाचलस्य करयोरित्यूचिवान् सस्मितं शैलान्तःपुरमातृमण्डलगणैर्दृष्टोवताद्वः शिवः ।।५२०।। अत्र पुलकवेपथू सात्त्विकरूपतया प्रसूतौ शैत्यकारणतया प्रकाशितत्वादपलपितस्वरूपौ व्याजोक्तिं प्रयोजयतः ।।११८।। किंचित् पृष्टमपृष्टं वा कथितं यत् प्रकल्पते । तादृगन्यव्यपोहाय परिसंख्या तु सा स्मृता ।। ११९ ।। This is not the same as ‘Concealment’ (see above Kārikā No. 96), because in the present case there is no possibility of any similitude between the object described and that to which it is compared. Example (of Artful Assertion)— ‘May Shiva protect you,—he being smilingly looked upon by the ladies in the harem of the King of Mountains, when he,—having a thrill and such effects produced in himself by the touch of Pārvatī’s hand offered to him by her father, and feeling confused at the consequent omission of the details of the marriage-rites,—blurted out—“Oh, how cold are the hands of the Snow-moun- tain!” Here the thrilling and the trembling (the latter being among the ‘other effects’),—though really appearing as the calm effects (of the feeling of Love aroused by the touch), are described here as the effects of cold; and as in this manner their real character is ‘concealed’, we have here a case of Artful Assertion. 118.
