ते भावशान्त्यादयः । अङ्गत्वं राजानुगतविवाहप्रवृत्तभृत्यवत् ॥
अनुस्वानाभसंलक्ष्यक्रमव्यङ्ग्यस्थितिस्तु यः ॥ ३७ ॥
शब्दार्थोभयशक्त्युत्थस्त्रिधा स कथितो ध्वनिः ।
शब्दशक्तिमूलानुरणनरूपव्यङ्ग्यः, अर्थशक्तिमूलानुरणनरूप-
व्यङ्ग्यः, उभयशक्तिमूलानुरणनरूपव्यङ्ग्यश्चेति त्रिविधः ॥३७॥
‘These’—i. e., the Allayment (Manifestation, Conjun-
cture and Admixture) of Emotions.
‘Predominance’.—This occasional predominance is like
that of the King’s servant whose marriage is attended by
the King (who, for the time, occupies a position subordi-
nate to that of the servant).
[Having described the suggestion ‘with imperceptible sequence,’
the author proceeds to describe that in which the sequence is percep-
tible.]
That suggestion in which the (suggested meaning has its
sequence to the suggestive word) clearly perceptible, in the manner
of a reverberating echo, has been said to be of three kinds—
(1) that arising from the force of the word, (2) that arising
from the force of the meaning, and (3) that arising from the
force of both. 37.
The three kinds are—(1) that in which the reverbera-
ting suggested meaning is based on the force of the
word, (2) that in which the suggested meaning is based
upon the force of the meaning, and (3) that in which
the suggested meaning is based upon the force of both.
[Whether in a certain case the suggestion proceeds from the word
or from its expressed meaning is determined by the possibility or
otherwise of its being got at even by the changing of the word :
If it is found that the suggestion remains unaffected even when we
substitute other synonyms of the word, then it is regarded as based
upon the meaning, while if the slightest change in the word vitiates
the suggestion, then it is regarded as based upon the word.] 37.
