SECOND PARICCHEDA 87
Kṛṣṇa. सेन्द्रायुधः मेघ इव Like a cloud possessed of a
rainbow. आवभासे Shone. This verse is cited by
Namisādhu on Kāvyālaṁkāra XI—24 with शशिभासि
शङ्खं in the place of शशिभासमब्जम्.
शक्रचापग्रहादत्र दर्शितं किल कार्मुकम् ।
वासःशङ्खानुपादानाद्धीनमित्यभिधीयते ॥ ४२ ॥
42. By the mention of the rainbow the bow on
the Upameya side has been set off in comparison.
By the absence of features corresponding to the gar-
ment and the conch the Upamā is said to be deficient
on the Upamāna side.
42. The author points out the application of
the defect known as हीन in this verse. On the Upa-
meya side there are three factors—the yellow gar-
ment, the conch and the bow. On the Upamāna
side, only one factor is set out viz., the rainbow.
The features corresponding to the yellow garment
and the conch are not set out on the Upamāna side.
Contrast this with Verse 58 where two factors viz.,
the yellow garment and Śārṅga bow are referred
to on the Upameya side and three factors viz., the
lightning, the rainbow and the moon are mentioned
on the Upamāna side. So that exemplifies अधिक or
उपमानाधिकत्वं, the 6th fault in the list given above.
In the present verse if the lightning and the moon
are also expressly mentioned it will be free from
objection.
