464 KĀVYAPRAKĀŚA उदाहरणम्-- आत्ते सीमन्तरत्ने मरकतिनि हृते हेमतातङ्कपत्रे लुप्तायां मेखलायां झटिति मणितुलाकोटियुग्मे गृहीते । शोणं बिम्बोष्ठकान्त्या त्वदरिमृगदृशामित्वरीणामरण्ये राजन् गुञ्जाफलानां स्रज इति शबरा नैव हारं हरन्ति ॥५७०॥ अत्र तद्गुणमपेक्ष्य भ्रान्तिमत्ता प्रादुर्भूतम् तदाश्रयेण च तद्गुणः सचेतसां प्रभूतचमत्कृतिनिमित्तमित्यनयोरङ्गाङ्गिभावः । यथा वा When these same figures, incapable of attaining inde- pendent existence by themselves, bear to one another the relation of helper and helped (i. e., when one helps to sustain the other), it is Commixture, 'Saṅkara';—so called because it involves a mixing up of the figures. Example—'O King, when the wives of your enemies are wandering about in the forest, the foresters wrest from them emerald crown-jewel, take away the golden ear-ornament, snap away the girdle-zone and quickly remove the jewelled anklets; but on seeing the necklace of pearls, which has become reddened by the reflection of the red colour of their Bimba-like lips, they take it to be only a string of red berries and therefore do not take it'. Here the figure 'Illusion' appears as based upon 'Quality-borrowing', and vice versa; and this comming- ling of the two figures is felt by persons possessed of poetic sensibility to be extremely charming; and hence it is found that there is 'mutual subserviency' between the two.
