CHAPTER VII 261

षट्पदान् पुष्पमालेव कान् नाकर्षति सा सखे ॥२९१॥
अत्रोत्कृष्टपुष्पविषये पुष्पशब्दः । निरुपपदो हि मालाशब्दः

जगाद मधुरां वाचं विशदाक्षरशालिनीम् ॥२९२॥

Ṣaṭpadān puṣpamāleva kān nākarṣati sā sakhe .
‘ She who is endowed with a richness of beauty, youth
and excellent graces,—whom does she not captivate, O
Friend ! in the same manner as a flower-garland attracts
the bees ?’—
The term ‘ puṣpa ’ ‘ flower ’, has been added in the
sense of excellent flowers,—the word ‘ mālā ’ ‘ garland ’,
without a prefix, denoting merely a string of flowers
(without any idea of the quality of the flowers strung).
This is a justification of only such instances as are actually

It is not meant to justify such usage by modern writes) ;
so that it would not be right to use such expressions as
‘ jaghanakāñchī ’, on the analogy of the expression
‘ Karṇāvataṁsa ’ (justified above p. 258).
In such expressions as
‘ jagāda madhurāṁ vāchaṁ vishadākṣarashālinīm ’ (‘ uttered
a speech, sweet and clearly worded ’), it is not right
