love; whereas Sītā not only does not respond but actually hates him. Hence this love is false !
609. It is not unlikely that the original reading in the first half of the skandhaka
might have been कुविआणुणिआ (कुपितानुनीता). Bhoja cites this skandhaka as an example of one of the varieties of संस्थानानुराग, called अतिशायी - ('एकस्यातिशयाधिक्ये अतिशायी ) SK (p. 671, v. 322) cites it with the introductory words : "प्रेमप्रकारे विप्रियादिभिरप्यविनाशयनीयो नित्यो यथा-".

Bhuvanapala (v. 642, p. 271) and Jinesvara suri (GRK v. 671) read: कस्स न सद्धा गरुयत्तणस्स पइणो पसायमइअस्स ।

M. V.
