उत्तररामचरितम् (महाकवि भवभूति - संस्कृत मूल एवं हिन्दी व्याख्या)

-V 17 ] UTTARARAMACHARITA. 153
P 115 Verse 17 अविद्यमान हेतुः यस्य पक्षपातः liking, love
प्रतिषिद्धा prevention स सीव्यति It is a thread-formed of affec-
tion which sews beings inside (i. e. not so as to be perceptible
as ordinary sewing is). Ordinary thread for sewing is made
of cotton or silk but this is formed of affection alone. Be-
ings are brought to love one another by an inner and unseen
working of the hearts. Verse 18 मसृणितं राजपहं तद्वद् कान्तं
( मनोहरं ) तस्मिन्—as lovely as a polished royal fillet. परिष्वङ्गस्य
आलिङ्गनस्य अनिष्पादात् पुलका एव कदम्बानि (कदम्बपुष्पानि), उन्मीलन्ति
पुलककदम्बानि यस्मिन् in which the erect hair resembling कदम्ब buds
have made their appearance. For the comparison of कदम्ब buds
and पुलक, see above Act III verse 4°. Or we may take कदम्ब
in the sense of समूह. उन्मीलद् पुलककदम्बं यस्मिन् अङ्गम् body.
Verse 19 आक्रान्त (प्राप्त) कठोरं दैन येन तस्मिन् किं विना what
course is there except the use of weapon in the case of
one that has assumed a harsh (fighting) spirit? ईदृश
like this ; e. like लव. अयमेव—refers to लव. वीराणां बाधते for
the military code of honour which is very stern in its spirit
comes against the course of affection. समय conventional rules-
दारुण रस (essence) यस्य. किंnu भूयस why do you become pertur-
bed in a strange way? Most editions read परेण वर्तसे, which yields
a good sense. किंनु वर्तसे why do you fancy something that is
strange? But this seems to be a conjectural reading. Verse 20
शम—refers to सीता. लून cut off. प्रसव produce (such as leaves,
flowers, fruits). सुमन्त्र was struck with Lava's similarity to
Sīta and Rāma. But he supposed her to be dead.
P 116 कस्य हेतो:—vide notes p. 99 on the same words.
एकत: on one side, in the first place. समनुयतः followed.
न अभियुक्तन्ति do not attack. Vide notes p. 100. परिभावन्ते
lay down a rule or convention. Verse 21. न्याय्यं right,
पादाभ्यामटनम्, according to 'धनरव्यवन्धात्पादिनपैवे पा० 4 4 9". अनुष्ठान
action (here getting down from the chariot). मादृश a per-
son like me (grown old in the heroic family of इक्ष्वाकु). साहसै-
कपरक रसं यस्मात्—of which rashness is the only essence; e.
hazardous. तानपिक्ष्या—he refers to राम, लक्ष्मण and his two
other uncles or to राम only. पितु दिवसरन् the dear friend of the
father (of राम). सुमन्त्र was the friend of दशरथ. अपशयादेषु when
there is a doubt about a thing (whether it should be done or
not). विमृशति thinks i. e. takes time to reply. एवं मन्यसे what
you think is in accordance with your duty. Verse 22 यत'
