22 KĀVYAPRAKĀŚA अनयोर्लक्ष्यस्य लक्षकस्य च न भेदरूपं तटस्थ्यम् । तटादीनां गङ्गादिशब्दैः प्रतिपादने तत्वप्रतिपत्तौ हि प्रतिपिपाद- यिषितप्रयोजनसंप्रत्ययः । गङ्गासंबन्धमात्रप्रतीतौ तु गङ्गातटे घोष इति मुख्यशब्दाभिधानाल्लक्षणायाः को भेदः ॥१०॥ सारोपान्या तु यत्रोक्तौ विषयी विषयस्तथा । आरोप्यमाणः आरोपविषयश्च यत्रानपह्रुतभेदौ सामाना- धिकरण्येन निर्दिश्येते सा लक्षणा सारोपा ॥ fact, in a case where the Bank is spoken of by means of the word 'Gaṅgā,' it is done clearly for the purpose of expressing some definite notion (such as that of 'sanctity' in the present case); and this purpose can be accomplished only when the two (the indicated 'bank' and the indica- tive 'river') are comprehended as absolutely identical i. e., the sanctity of the 'bank' is recognised only when the 'bank' is identified with the 'river' whose sanctity is already well-known. If this were not so, and if all that was intended to be expressed was some sort of connection with the 'river,' then as this could be done equally well by the ordinary expression 'gaṅgātaṭe ghoṣaḥ' ('the ranch on the banks of the river Gaṅgā'),—what difference would there be between the expression of that idea by this direct assertion and the indirect 'indication' of the same (by the indirect expression 'gaṅgāyāṁ ghoṣaḥ') ? 10. There is however another (kind of Indication) called the 'Super-imponent', wherein the 'imposed' as well as 'that imposed upon' are both distinctly expressed. That Indication is called 'Super-imponent' in which what is 'imposed' and what is 'imposed upon' are both mentioned as correlated and as clearly distinct from one another.
