प्रतिपादिते आर्थेन च क्रमेणोक्ताश्चत्वार एव भेदाः ।
आक्षिप्ते चौपम्ये तावन्त एव । एवं द्वादश ।। एते श्लेषेपि भव-
न्तीति चतुर्विंशतिर्भेदाः । क्रमेणोदाहरणम्—
असिमात्रसहायस्य प्रभूतारिपराभवे ।
अन्यतुच्छजनस्येव न स्मयोस्य महाधृतेः ।।४६३।।
अत्रैव तुच्छेति महाधृतेरित्यनयोः पर्यायेण युगपद्दानपादा-
नेन्यत् भेदत्रयम् । एवमन्येष्वपि द्रष्टव्यम् । अत्र इवशब्दस्य
सद्भावाच्छाब्दमौपम्यम् ।
असिमात्रसहायोपि प्रभूतारिपराभवे ।
नैवान्यतुच्छजनवत्सगर्वोयं महाधृतिः ।।४६४।।
have the three other kinds of Dissimilitude];—we have
those four kinds, when the comparison is expressed by
words; another four kinds, when each of the said four has
the comparison expressed by meaning ;—and yet another
four kinds when each of them has the comparison only
implied ;—thus there are twelve varieties (of this figure).—
Each of these occurs also in paronomatic expressions
(expressions with double meanings),—and thus we get
the twenty-four varieties of Dissimilitude.
Examples in order—(1-4) ‘ To this person, possessed
of great dignity, pride did not come,—as it does to other
inferior persons, —when he suppressed his enemies with
the help of his sword only.’
The person described being ‘ possessed of great dignity’,
and the other persons being ‘ inferior ’, are the grounds
of Dissimilitude ;—and when either one of these is not
mentioned, and when both of them are not mentioned, we
have the other three varieties.—In this case, as the sentence
contains the word ‘ iva ’, the comparison is ‘ directly
expressed by words ’.
