CHAPTER X 355 दिस्तु व्यङ्ग्योऽर्थोऽलंकारान्तरं च सर्वत्राव्यभिचारीत्यगणयित्वैव तदलंकारा उदाहृताः । तद्रहितत्वेन तु उदाह्रियमाणा विर- सतामावहन्तीति पूर्वापरविरुद्धाभिधानमिति न चोदनीयम् ॥८७॥ तद्वद् धर्मस्य लोपे स्यान्न श्रौती तद्धिते पुनः । धर्मः साधारणः । तद्धिते कल्पबादौ त्वार्थ्येव ॥ तेन पञ्च ॥ Then, as regards the presence of suggestion of Charm and other factors or of Figures of Speech other than the one, a particular verse is quoted to exemplify,—this will always be found in all cases. Hence when examples of particular Figures are cited, all these (concomitant issues) are entirely ignored. In fact, if we were to cite examples entirely devoid of any suggestion (of charm and other factors), they would be extremely distasteful. For these reasons, it would not be right to urge that in citing the above examples there is an inconsistency with what has been said before (regarding Figurative or Fanci- ful Poetry being devoid of suggestion). [The 19 kinds of the Elliptical Simile are next described.] 87. The property being omitted, this (form of Elliptical Simile) would be like the foregoing (Complete Simile) ; but in that case the Directly Expressed Simile would not occur in a word built with a nominal formative affix. ‘ Property ’—i. e., the common property. ‘ In a nominal formative affix ’,—i. e., in such affixes as ‘ kalpa ’, ‘ vā ’ and so forth ; in connection with which we could have the Implied Simile only. It is thus of five kinds. (1) Example [of the Elliptical Simile, omitting the common property, and directly expressed, in a sentence]

(2) [Example of the Elliptical Simile omitting the common property, implied.] ‘ Ākṛṣṭakarabālosau saṁparāye paribhraman Pratyarthisenayā dṛṣṭaḥ kṛtāntena samaḥ prabhuḥ’ ‘ Roaming in battle with the drawn sword, he was looked upon by the enemies, as equal to the Death-god.’ [Here the common property, cruelty, has been omitted; and as it is the sameness of action that is meant, the Similitude is ‘implied.’] (3)-(4)-(5) [Example of the Elliptical Simile, omitting the common property, (a) directly expressed, in a com- pound, (b) implied, in a compound and (c) implied, in a nominal affix.] ‘ Karavāla ivāchārastasya vāgamṛtopamā Viṣakalpaṁ mano vetsi yadi jīvasi tat sakhe’ ‘ You will live if you know that (a) his behaviour is like that of the sword, (b) his speech is almost like nectar, and (c) his mind is like poison.’

(6) [Example of Elliptical Simile, omitting the object compared to, occurring in a sentence]— ‘Saalakarāṇaparavīsāmasiriviaraṇaṁ ṇa sarasakavvassa Dīsaï aha vā ṇisammaï sarisaṁ aṁsaṁsametteṇa’ ‘ ‘For affording pleasure to the highest senses, nothing is either known or seen to be equal to charming poetry, even in its smallest part.’ [The object to which Poetry is compared is not mentioned, and the similitude is implied by the sentence.] (7) In this same verse if we read ‘kavvasamaṁ’ for ‘kavvassa,’ and ‘ṇūnaṁ’ for ‘sarisaṁ’, we have an example of the same kind of Simile occurring in a compound. 88. On the omission of ‘vā’ and such other terms (expressing similitude), it occurs (8) in a compound, (9) in the affix

The term ‘vā’ is expressive of similitude; and on the omission of this term ‘vā’ and of others similarly expressive of similitude,—there are six kinds of Simile, as occurring—(8) in a compound, (9) in the affix ‘kyach’ as used in the sense of the accusative, (10) in the affix ‘kyach’ as used in the sense of the location; (11) in the affix ‘kyaṅ’ as used in the sense of the nomi- native, (12) in the affix ‘ṇamul’ with a substantive used ccusatively, and (13) in the affix ‘ṇamul’ with a substan- ive used nominatively. Example of (8)— ‘Tataḥ kumudanāthena kāminīgaṇḍapāṇḍunā Netrānandena chandreṇa māhendrī digalaṅkṛtā ‘The eastern quarter was thereupon adorned by the Moon, a joy to the eyes, pale like the cheeks of a lóve-` stricken woman.’

Nārīyate samarasīmni kṛpāṇapāṇer Ālokya tasya charitāni sapatnasenā.’ ‘He treats the citizens as his children ; famous for his wonderful deeds, he behaves in battlefield as if it were his harem; and the army of his enemies, seeing him, sword in hand, performing extraordinary feats in battle, come to behave like women.’ [(a) In ‘sutīyati’ we have the ‘kyach’ affix in the accusative sense; (b) in ‘antaḥpurīyati,’ we have the same affix used in the locative sense, and (c) in ‘nārīyate,’ we have the affix ‘kyaṅ’ in the nominative sense.] (12)—(13)— ‘Mṛdhe nidāghagharmāṁśudarśaṁ paśyanti taṁ pare Sa punaḥ pārthasaṁchāraṁ sañcharatyavanīpatiḥ.’

[In the first sentence the 'ṇamul' affix has the force of the accusative and in the second that of the nominative.] (14)—(15)—On the omission of both these, it occurs in the 'kvip' affix and in a compound. 89. 'Of these two'—i. e., of the common property and the term expressive of similitude. (14) Example (of the Elliptical Simile, omitting both, occurring in the affix 'kvip')— 'Savitā vidhavati vidhurapi savitarati tathā dinanti yāminyaḥ Yāminayanti dināni cha sukhaduḥkha-vashīkṛte manasi'. 'When the mind is under the influence of pleasure, the sun becomes the moon and the nights become days; when, on the other hand, it is under the influence of pain, the moon becomes the sun and days become nights.' [Here the Simile lies in the 'Kvip' affix in the words 'vidhavati', 'savitarati', 'dinanti' and 'yāminayanti'.] (15) [Of the same, in a compound]— 'Paripanthimanorājyashatairapi durākramaḥ Saṁparāyapravṛttosau rājate rājakuñjaraḥ'.

(16)—(17)— On the omission of the common property and the object compared to, it is found in a compound and in a sentence. (16) ‘ Ṭuṇṭuṇṇanto marihisi kaṇṭaakaliāiṁ keaivaṇāiṁ Mālaikusumasarichchhaṁ bhamara bhamanto ṇa pāvihisi’ ‘ O black bee ! thou shalt perish, wandering among Ketakī-bowers ; but however much thou mayst wander, thou shalt never find anything like the Mālatī-flower. ’ [The Simile lies in the compound ‘ mālai-kusuma—sarichchhaṁ ].’ (17) If we read ‘ kusumeṇa samaṁ ’ (in place of ‘ kusuma- sarichchhaṁ ’), the same verse becomes an example of the same kind of compound as occurring in a sentence. (18)—On the omission of the term expressive of simi- litude and the object compared, it occurs in the affix ‘ Kyach ’. ‘ Āsā ’ means “ nirāsā ’, ‘ on the omission.’ (18)— [Example]— ‘ Arātivikramālokavikasvaravilocanaḥ Kṛpāṇodagradordaṇḍaḥ sa sahasrāyudhīyati ’

Example— ‘ Taruṇimani kṛtāvalokanā lalitavilāsavitīrṇavigrahā Smarasharavisarāchitāntarā mṛganayanā harate munermanaḥ.’ ‘ Just peeping into youthfulness, surrendering her body to graceful dalliance, and having her heart pierced by a flight of Cupid’s arrows, the fawn-eyed one captivates the heart of even the ascetic.’ This verse forms an apposite example only when the compound ‘ mṛganayanā ’ is expounded in accordance with the Vārtika on Pāṇini 2.2.24 (as mṛganayanā iva nayane yasyāḥ), involving the elision [(1) of the former ‘ nayane ’, which is the ‘ object compared to ’, and (2) of the term

But this is not right ; as what the term means is ‘ayaḥshūlena anvichchhati’ ‘who behaves like the spear,’ and what is done here is that ‘cruel behaviour’ is spoken of as the ‘spear’, and this involves the figure of Atishayokti, Hyperbole,—and not that of Simile with three factors omitted. These nineteen kinds of Elliptical Simile, along with the six kinds of the Complete Simile, make up the twenty- five varieties of Simile. As regards other varieties of Simile that have been described by others, we find—(a) the Mālopamā, String- simile, where a single object is compared to several, with its two varieties—one in which the same common property II-5

Example— ‘It is not only that possessed of exquisite loveliness, that woman shines as that woman herself ; in fact, her graces also, which are the abode of the Cupid’s blandish- ments, are like her own graces.’ III—Upameyopamā—Reciprocal Comparison When there is alternation of these two, it is Reciprocal Comparison. 91. ‘Of these two’ i. e., of the object compared and the object compared to ;—there is ‘alternation’, interchange, in two separate sentences,—this means that there is no third thing with which either of them could bear comparison, we have ‘Upameyopamā—i. e., a figure, where there is ‘Upamā’—(comparison, of the object compared to) with the ‘Upameya’ (object compared) itself.

IV—Utprekṣā—Poetic Fancy. Poetic Fancy consists in the imagining of the thing described as (identical) with a similar thing. ‘Similar thing’—i.e., that to which it is meant to be compared. Example— ‘O beautiful one! I think that the beauty of the lotus attaches itself to your feet, on being happy at the idea that her born enemy the Moon, who brooks not her blossoming during the night, has had the pride of his beauty quickly suppressed by the splendour of the face of this lotus-eyed girl. [Here the object compared is the beauty of the girl’s feet, and this has been imagined to be the beauty of the lotus fallen on her feet, which, in reality, is the object to which the former is meant to be compared.]

[And the spreading of darkness has been imagined to be the showering of soot : so that this is an instance of Poetical Fancy, and not Simile, as some people have taken it to be, having been misled to this view by the presence of the particle ‘iva’] V—Sasandeha—Doubtful. The statement of a doubt constitutes the Doubtful,—the distinction being asserted or not asserted. 92. For example, we have the ‘difference stated’, in the following verse— ‘Is this the sun ?—But the sun is carried by seven horses. Is he the Fire ?—Surely, Fire never flames on all sides. Is he the Death-god ?—But the Death-god has the buffalo for his conveyance. Thus, O King, on

Is this the lotus ?—But where is the water gone to ? O Fawn-eyed one ! that what was seen was the face ascertained later on through the presence of sweet and elegant speech.’ But this variety of the Doubtful has been omitted by Rudraṭa, on the ground that in this case the certainty is not merely suggested, as it is in that variety where the cer- tainty is left concealed [and hence it loses its effectiveness.] The following is an example of the case where the difference is not stated—‘ In the creating of this woman, was the position of the creator occupied by the Moon,

Or was it the season of spring ?—How else could the ancient sage, whose sensibility had been deadened by Vedic study and whose interest had been withdrawn from all objects, be able to create such a heart-ravishing body ?' 92. VI—Rūpaka—Metaphor. Where there is non-difference between the 'object compared to' and the 'object compared', it is Metaphor. What is meant by 'non-difference' is that idea of non-difference which is based upon extreme likeness between two objects, whose difference is not entirely concealed. (1) In cases where what is imposed is directly expressed, it is Metaphor Universal. 93. In cases where, as the objects imposed upon, so the objects imposed also, are directly mentioned by words, it is that Metaphor which is called 'Universal',—in the sense that the whole (samasta) of what is imposed (nyasta) is its expressed objective (viṣaya).

'Jassa raṇaṁteurae kare kuṇaṁtassa maṇḍalaggalaaṁ Rasasaṁmuhī vi sahasā paraṁmuhī hoi riuseṇā'. 'When, in the harem of the battle-field, he takes in his arms the sword-blade (his beloved wife). the oppo- sing army (her rival), even though passionate, turns away from him'. Here the character of 'harem' as imposed upon the 'battlefield' is directly expressed by the words, while the fact of the 'sword-blade' being the 'beloved wife', as also that of the 'opposite army' being her 'rival', is comprehended only through the force of the meaning of the words employed ; and thus the Metaphor, being particularly, explicit in only a part of it, is called 'partial'. This is complex, with all its constituents. The two kinds of Metaphor just described are equipped with all constituents. [i. e. in these what is imposed is not only the object compared to, by itself alone, but along with all its accessories.]

[When the object alone by itself is imposed.] Example—‘While listening to songs, she keeps her limbs unmoved, like the doe ; asks her friend the news about her lover, even though she has already heard it ; she lies down within, without sleep ; from all this I gather that the Love-god has begun to water the fresh sprout of affection in her heart’. [Here, all that is imposed upon the affection is the character of the sprout ; and nothing is said regarding any detailed properties of the latter.] The ‘String’ is like the foregoing. 94. Just as in the ‘String Simile’ so in the ‘String Metaphor’ also, the character of several objects is imposed upon a single object. Example—‘That beloved one is the stream of beauty, the joyous effusion of youthful exuberance, the touch- stone of resplendence, the abode of loving confidences,
