CHAPTER X 355
दिस्तु व्यङ्ग्योऽर्थोऽलंकारान्तरं च सर्वत्राव्यभिचारीत्यगणयित्वैव
तदलंकारा उदाहृताः । तद्रहितत्वेन तु उदाह्रियमाणा विर-
सतामावहन्तीति पूर्वापरविरुद्धाभिधानमिति न चोदनीयम् ॥८७॥
तद्वद् धर्मस्य लोपे स्यान्न श्रौती तद्धिते पुनः ।
धर्मः साधारणः । तद्धिते कल्पबादौ त्वार्थ्येव ॥ तेन पञ्च ॥
Then, as regards the presence of suggestion of Charm
and other factors or of Figures of Speech other than the
one, a particular verse is quoted to exemplify,—this will
always be found in all cases. Hence when examples of
particular Figures are cited, all these (concomitant issues)
are entirely ignored.
In fact, if we were to cite examples entirely devoid
of any suggestion (of charm and other factors), they would
be extremely distasteful.
For these reasons, it would not be right to urge that
in citing the above examples there is an inconsistency with
what has been said before (regarding Figurative or Fanci-
ful Poetry being devoid of suggestion).
[The 19 kinds of the Elliptical Simile are next described.] 87.
The property being omitted, this (form of Elliptical Simile)
would be like the foregoing (Complete Simile) ; but in that
case the Directly Expressed Simile would not occur in a word
built with a nominal formative affix.
‘ Property ’—i. e., the common property. ‘ In a nominal
formative affix ’,—i. e., in such affixes as ‘ kalpa ’, ‘ vā ’ and
so forth ; in connection with which we could have the
Implied Simile only. It is thus of five kinds.

common property, and directly expressed, in a sentence]
