CHAPTER V 153
गुणीभूतव्यङ्ग्येतात्पर्यभूतोप्यर्थः स्वशब्दानभिधेयः प्रतीतिपथ-
मवतरन् कस्य व्यापारस्य विषयतामवलम्बतामिति ।
ननु 'रामोस्मि सर्वं सहे' इति 'रामेण प्रियजीवितेन तु

expressed meaning entirely ignored' and others that have
been described above as pertaining to 'suggestion' and
'suggested meaning'],—the comprehension also of such
'indicated' meaning is based (like that of the 'suggested'
meaning) upon both words and meanings, and is also
dependent upon context and other conditions; so that (all
these conditions being fulfilled by the 'Indicated' mean-
