When, as a matter of fact, there is no real contra-
diction between two things,—and they are spoken of as
if they were contradictory,—it is the Figure Contradiction.
(1—4) The Universal contradicted by the four, (1) Universal
[(2) Quality, (3) Action and (4) Substance], —(5—7) the
Quality contradicted by three [i.e. Quality, Action and Sub-
stance], —(8—9) Action contradicted by two [i. e. Action and
Substance] —and (10) Substance contradicted by Substance;—
thus this Figure is of ten kinds.
Examples in order—(1) [Community contradicted by
Community.]
'O handsome one ! at the sudden thunderfall of your
separation, fresh lotus leaves, bracelets of lotus—stalk
and such other things appear to the fawn-eyed one, like
heaps of flaming fuel.'
(2) [Community contradicted by Quality]—
'O King ! in your presence Mountains become devoid
of height, Winds become motionless, the Ocean, devoid
of depth, and the Earth, extremely light.'

(3) [Community contradicted by Action]—
‘ How wonderful it is that you perform, with the
dust (of the battlefield) the toilet of your enemies, whose
heart is in the battle, and by obtaining the hold of whose
necks your sharp sword became reddened (impassioned)
and acquired smoothness (affection).’
(4) [Community contradicted by Substance]—
‘ It is strange that Viṣṇu, who creates, protects and
destroys the universe with ease, becomes, when occasion
presents itself, a small fish.’
(5) [Quality contradicted by Quality]—
‘ The hands of Brāhmaṇa-women, which had become
hardened by the handling of the wooden mallet, in the
course of household duties, have, during your reign,
become soft like the lotus.’
(6) [Quality contradicted by Action]—
‘ The words of the wicked, even though soft, burn
the hearts of wise men ; and the words of gentlemen,
even though harsh, are a source of joy, like the sandal-
juice.’

soft like the fresh lotus.’
(8) [Action contradicted by Action]—

(9) [Action contradicted by Substance]—
‘With our hearts restless through desire (for water
and riches), we approached the Ocean, thinking it to be
the one reservoir of water and also the storehouse of
gems;—but who could know that the Sage (Agastya)
would hold the Ocean, with the fish and alligators flutter-
ing in it, in his hands and quaff it off in a moment ?’

elephants.’ 110-111.
XXIV—Svabhāvokti—Natural Description.
When, of the child and other things, their own action and
form are described,—it is Natural Description. 110-111.
‘Their own’—i. e., (the Action and the form) as sub-
sisting in themselves, ‘Form’—Colour and shape.
Example.—
‘The horse, rising from sleep, extends his hind legs,
stretches his body enlarged by the three dips on it back,
brings his mouth to his chest, with his neck curved ; and
flutters his dusted mane ; his lips quivering on account
of his desire for grass ; and softly neighing, he is
scratching the ground with his hoofs.’ 110-111.
XXV.—Vyājastuti—Dissembling Eulogy.
When, what, on the face of it, is praise or disparagement,
turns out to be otherwise, it is Dissembling Eulogy.
The name ‘Dissembling Eulogy’, ‘Vyājastuti’, is
applied to this figure in the sense that it is a eulogy
(‘stuti’) in the form of, or through dissimulation (‘vyāja’).

force of some synonym of the word ‘saha’ (along with),—it is
Connected Description. 112.
Where, a word, which really denotative of one thing,
comes, through the force of some word denoting ‘along
with’, to bring about the idea of both things,—it is
Connected Description.
Example—
‘O beautiful one, at her separation from you, her
breaths become long drawn out, along with the nights and
days ; her flow of tears continue to drop, along with the
bracelets ; and the very hope of life becomes feeble, along
with her slender body’.
Here the properties of (a) ‘being long drawn out’
[(b) ‘dropping’ and (c) ‘becoming feeble’] as applying
to (a) ‘breaths’, [(b) ‘tears’ and (c) ‘hope of life’]
are directly expressed by the words ; but to the (a) ‘night
and days’, [(b) ‘bracelects’, and (c) ‘slender body’],
they are applicable only through the force of the term
‘along with’. 112.
XXVII—Vinokti—Privative Description.

That is Privative Description in which one thing, without
the other, is either (a) not beautiful or (b) the contrary.
In one kind, one thing, without the other, is not
beautiful, and in the other, it is beautiful.
Examples in order—
(a) ‘Without the Night, the Moon is not beautiful;
without the Moon, the Night is only dense darkness;
and without both these, the love-dealings of lovers do
not shine.’
(b) ‘In the absence of the fawn-eyed one, this Prince is
expert in astonishing feats of quick intelligence; and in the
absence of that friend, his heart is as beautiful as the moon’.
XXVIII—Parivṛtti—Exchange.
When there is an interchange between equal or unequal
things—it is Exchange. 113.
‘Parivṛttiḥ’—i.e., the figure named ‘Parivṛtti’,
Exchange.
Example—
(a) ‘The wind imparts graceful movement to the
blossoming creepers and receives their unrivalled fragrance;

प्रत्यक्षा इव यद्भावाः क्रियन्ते भूतभाविनः ।

भूताश्च भाविनश्चेति द्वन्द्वः। भावः कवेरभिप्रायोत्रास्तीति
(b) these creepers, on the other hand, draw to themselves
the eyes of travellers, and give to them pain, physical
and mental, as also perplexity and nervelessness.'
Here in the former half, we have an interchange bet-
ween two equal things ; and in the latter an inferior thing ,
is exchanged for a superior one.
(c) ‘O King ! your haughty enemies, having accepted
in battle the stroke of various kinds of weapons, have
made over to you this Earth in such a manner that her
relationship with you shall never cease.’
Here a superior thing is exchanged for an inferior
one. 113.
XXIX—Bhāvika—Visualisation.
When past and future things are delineated as if they were
before the eyes,—it is Visualisation.
‘Bhūtabhāvinaḥ’—‘past and future’—a copulative
compound.
This figure is called ‘Bhāvika’ in the sense that it
416 KĀVYAPRAKĀŚA
भाविकम्। उदाहरणम्—

represents the poet's intention (bhāva).
Example—
(a) 'I see that there was collyrium in your eyes ;—
(b) and I perceive your body as going to be adorned with
ornaments'.
In (a) there is 'visualisation' of the past (collyrium),
and in (b) that of the future (ornamentation).
XXX—Kāvyaliṅga—Poetical Reason.
When a reason is expressed either (a) by a sentence, or (b)
by a word,—it is Poetical Reason. 114.
(a) The Reason expressed by a sentence—
'From my bodily incarnation I infer, O Shiva, that
in my previous birth, I never bowed down to You ; and
bowing down to You now, and thereby becoming libera-
ted, I shall not have a body and hence shall not bow down
to You in the future ; both these faults of mine, please
pardon, O Lord.'

लोकोच्छेदिनि मोक्षनामनि महामोहे निधीयामहे ॥५०३ ॥
(b) Reason expressed by several words.—
‘Her body is such as suffers pain even on being struck
with soft Sirīsha-flowers by her loving friends in sportive
jokes ; and it is against such a body that you have raised
your weapon ; so fall on your head this arm of mine,
resembling the missile of the Death-God.’
[This is an instance of the reason being expressed by several
words,—not by a sentence,—because it is expressed by the words
‘vapuṣi shastramupakṣipataḥ’, which, in the absence of a finite verb,
cannot be regarded as a complete sentence.]
(c) Reason expressed by a single word:—
‘Paintings with ashes, fare thee well ! Garland of rosary,
may good befall you ! Oh, for the line of steps adorning
the house of Pārvatī ! Today I am being admitted by the
great God, who has been propitiated by me, into that dense
darkness, which is called ‘Liberation’, which is going
to deprive me of the light of the pleasure of waiting upon
you !’

Here, in (a) the omission of obeisance during the
preceding and coming births is the cause of the two faults:—
in (b) the raising of the weapon is the reason for the falling
of the arm ; and in (c) the depriving of the light of pleasure
is the cause of the ‘dense darkness’. 114.
XXXI.—Paryāyokta—Periphrasis.
Periphrasis consists in such description as is independent of
the ordinary denotative relation between the expressive word and
the expressed meaning.
When a certain fact is described by words, through
the implicative (suggestive) function,—and not through
the ordinary relation between the expressive word and
the expressed meaning:—it is Periphrasis, ‘Paryāyokta’ ;—
so called because what is said (‘ukta’) is by other means
(paryāya).
Example—
‘Even though long-standing, the love of residence
was renounced by intoxication and self-respect, in regard
respectively to the face of Airāvaṇa and the heart of Indra.’
The particle ‘api’, ‘even though’ serves to imply
that ‘Airāvaṇa’s face and Indra’s heart became bereft
CHAPTER X 419

of intoxication and self-respect' ; and this idea so sugges-
ted is the same as is directly expressed by the words
themselves [the expressed meaning also being that 'intoxi-
cation and self-respect renounced their love of residing
in Airāvaṇa's face and in Indra's heart ']. But the manner
in which the implication is made is not the same in which
the same idea is directly expressed.
We have an analogous instance in the case where
upon seeing a white ox walking, one has the complex
notion 'the white ox is walking'; and here what this
cognition expresses is exactly what the man had
previously perceived (in the abstract); but the manner
of the later cognition is different from that of the
preceding perception : the preceding perception (being
in an indeterminate form) apprehended the object (ox)
not as distinct from and related to (the other two factors,
the quality of whiteness, and the action of walking), while
the subsequent cognition does actually apprehend it as
so distinct and related.
XXXII.—Udātta—Exalted.
The Exalted consists (a) in the Exaltation of the thing;
'Exaltation'—being endowed with prosperity.

Example—
‘ The pearls dropping from necklaces snapped in
dalliance, which have become reddened by the foot-prints
of lascivious girls walking about in the court-yard, are
dusted aside with broom-sticks : mistaking them for pome-
granate-seeds, the sportive parrots pick up these pearls :—
that all this happens in the houses of learned men is the
effect, O King Bhoja, of your munificence.’
(b) It consists also in the representation of great beings as
adjuncts (to the thing exalted). 115
‘ Adjunct ’—being subordinate,—i.e., to the thing
described.
Example—
‘ This is that same forest residing wherein Rāma,
bent upon obeying the words of Dasharatha, with the
help of his arms, brought about the destruction of demons.’
[Here the fact of Rāma being an adjunct, a resident
of the forest, serves to exalt the latter ; it is the forest,
which is the predominating factor [ and not the Heroic
Sentiment ; as this latter is itself only a subordinate factor.]

एष एव समुच्चयः सद्योगेसद्योगे सदसद्योगे च पर्यवस्यतीति
XXXIII—Samuchchaya—Concatenation.
(a) It is Concatenation, when, while one cause conducive to
the effect in question being already present, another also turns
out to be conducive to it.
I. E., when one cause conducive to the effect to be
described is already present, other causes are also
mentioned,—it is Concatenation.
Example—
‘Irrepressible are the arrows of the Love-god ; my
beloved is at a distance ; my mind is extremely anxious ;
our love is deep ; age young ; life-breath very hard ;
family pure ; the feminine character is incompatible with
firmness ; the season is helpful to the Love-god ; the
God of Death is incapable (of putting an end to my life);
my friends are not sufficiently clever ;—how then can
this cruel pang of separation be borne ?’
‘The arrows of the Love-god’ are enough to make
the pangs of separation unbearable ;and in addition to this
are mentioned the other circumstances conducive to the
same effect,—such as the beloved being at a distance and so
forth.

It is this same figure of Concatenation which appears
in the form of (a) 'the combination of good things',
(b) 'the combination of bad things' and (c) 'the combi-
nation of good and bad' [which three have been des-
cribed by Rudraṭa and others as distinct figures of speech].
That is why these are not described by us separately.
For instance, in the example quoted above, we have 'the
combination of bad things'; while we have 'the combi-
nation of good things' in the following verse :-
'The family is untainted, appearance gentle, mind
full of learning, the strength of arm sufficient, wealth
extensive, sovereignty unimpeded ; all these circumstances
are naturally agreeable ; and it is only natural that, on
account of these, this man becomes arrogant ; but to you,
O King, these same only serve as means of restraint.'
In the following verse, there is 'combination of good
and bad', inasmuch as the fact of the 'Moon' (good) being
'dim' (bad) already being a 'dart,' several other darts
are mentioned (which also are combinations of the good
and the bad)-

' The Moon dim during the day,—the woman with

mouth of a handsome person,—the master too much
attached to wealth,—the good man always in trouble,—
the wicked man at the King’s Court,—these are the seven
darts in my heart.’
(b) It is another kind of the same figure (Concatenation)
when qualities and actions are (described as) simultaneous. 116.
The compound ‘guṇakriyāḥ’ is explained as meaning
(1) ‘two qualities’, (2) ‘two actions’ and (3) ‘quality
and action’.
Examples in order :—
(1) [Concatenation of two simultaneous qualities]—‘O
King, having shattered the forces of your enemy, your
army quickly became bright, [ and clean ] and those faces
of the wicked became faded.’
(2) [Concatenation of two simultaneous actions]—
‘This unbearable separation from my beloved has
come about suddenly ; and on account of the appearance
of fresh clouds the days are going to be free from heat
and lovely.’

(1) [One thin existing in several]—
‘O Poison ! by whom has been ordained this success-
ively higher series of your residences ?—First of all in
the heart of the ocean, then in the throat of Śhiva, and
now in the words of wicked men !’
Another example of the same kind—
‘Formerly this rāga (redness was seen in your bimba-
like lips only ; but now O fawn-eyed one, the same
(rāga attachment, love) is perceived in your heart also.”
Though here the ‘rāga’ spoken of is not exactly the
same in the two cases, yet (through the sameness of sound)
the two are felt to be one and the same ; hence the citing
of this as an example here is not wrong.
(2) [One thing made to appear in several]—
‘The hearts of the demons, that were concentrated
entirely on the Wearer of the Kaustubha-jewel (when he
appeared as the Enchantress),, were turned by the Love-
god towards the bimba-like lips of their wives.
(b) When the process is inverted, it is another kind (of
Sequence).
When several things successively (1) subsist, or (2)
are made to appear, in one thing,—it is another kind
of Sequence.

Examples in order—
(1) 'Strange it is that at first the words of the wicked,
sweet and agreeable, clearly indicate the presence of nectar,
and yet they indicate also the presence, in their heart, of
poison, the source of delusion.'
(2) 'That low-walled hut,—and this palace which
receives its light from heaven; that faded cow,—and
these cloud-like herds of bellowing elephants; that mean
sound of the pestle,—and this sweet music of women;
it is a wonder that this Brāhmaṇa has been transported into
this condition in so very few days.'
The renouncing (of one set of things) and acceptance
(of another) by the same agent is not what is meant to be
emphasised here; hence this cannot be regarded as a
case of 'Exchange'.
XXXV—Anumāna—Inference.
It is the description of the Probans and the Probandum that
