काव्यमीमांसा (महाकवि राजशेखर - कवि-रहस्य एवं देश-विभाग सटीक)

EIGHTEENTH ADHYĀYA 257

The reading तर्जयन्ती is, therefore, suggested here and this means
that the S'arat season threatens the peacocks by removing the
clouds. The reading द्रागर्जयन्ती is also suited to the context.
*[l. 20. चन्द्रिकांबुनीलावभासम् may be taken as one phrase.
l. 21. विवेक reads सुरेभवीथी दिवि सावतारा ।]
l. 21. The meaning of this line is not quite clear. सुरेभ refers
to Airāvata the elephant of Indra. The reading of the Kāvyānu-
śāsanaviveka दिवि सावतारा suggests the meaning that a row of stars
begins to appear in the sky.
l. 25. बुध्यते च etc. mean that god Viṣṇu gets up from his
sleep on the day of उत्थानैकादशी while आषाढैकादशी is known as देव-
शयनैकादशी or the day on which Viṣṇu goes to sleep.
l. 26. कलमा:=the first paddy crop.
l. 27. The old आमलक is preferable for medicinal purposes.
This verse केदार एव etc. is quoted in the S'uktimuktāvali (G. O. S.
edition. p. 229) with the remark कस्यापि.

Page. 102.
ll. 1-2. Both the words एर्वारुक and त्रपुसीफल mean cucumber.
*[l. 7. तीक्ष्णम् attributed to Bhāsa in S'ārṅgadharapaddhati
p. 593.
ll. 9-10. चित्तमन्तः instead of धर्मचिन्ता, पङ्कः instead of पङ्कम् are the
different readings.]
ll. 7-10. This verse also is quoted in the Sūktimuktāvali.
The reading धर्मचित्तम् seems to be better than धर्मचिन्ता. Read पङ्कः
for पङ्कम्.
l. 11. नद्यो वहन्ति is quoted in the Sūktimuktāvali as anonymous.
*[l. 14. Read मीनानुसारिबकदत्तकरालफालाः]
l. 14. फाल=tilling.
*[l. 20. द्वित्रि is attributed to कालिदास in सुभाषितमुक्तावली.
l. 26. वराहव्रणौणि नवौदनानि may mean rice cooked along with the
flesh of a boar].
l. 26. वराहव्रणौणि etc. Rājaśekhara seems to describe here the habits
of uncivilized people. Similar description is found on page 39
lines 8-9 of this work. Cf.
