CHAPTER X 471 इत्यत्र पुनरालिङ्गनमुपमां निरस्यति सदृशं प्रति परप्रेयसी- प्रयुक्तस्यालिङ्गनस्यासंभवात् । पादाम्बुजं भवतु नो विजयाय मञ्जु- मञ्जीरशिञ्जितमनोहरमम्बिकायाः ॥५७८॥ इत्यत्र मञ्जीरशिञ्जितम् अम्बुजे प्रतिकूलम् असंभावादिति रूपकस्यबाधकम् न तु पादेनुकूलमित्युपमायाःसाधकमभिधयते विध्युपमर्दिनो बाधकस्य तदपेक्षयोत्कटत्वेन प्रतिपत्तेः ॥ एवमन्यत्रापि सुधीभिः परीक्ष्यम् ॥१४०॥ face being so taken; and hence it becomes a reason for the admission of Metaphor, but not a reason against that of Simile. (c) In the passage—'The Goddess of Wealth firmly embraces you, the King-Viṣṇu',—the mention of 'em- bracing' excludes the Simile, as it is not possible (right) for the wife of one person to 'embrace' another who may be similar to him. (d) In the passage—'may the lotus-feet of Ambikā, lovely on account of the jingling of the anklets, ordain your victory',—the 'jingling' is unfavourable to the description applying to the lotus whose jingling is impossible and as such, it is a reason against the admission of Metaphor; we do not regard it as a reason for the admission of the Simile, on the ground of its being favourable to its apply- ing to the feet,—because the fact of its being a negative reason against (Metaphor) is more obtrusively recognised than that of its being an affirmative reason for Simile. Similar deductions may be made by the learned in other cases also.
