Even in the case of some sections primarily concerned with Artha, such as विझ, गय, वाह, करह, मालई, इंदिदिर, सुरतरुविसेस, हंस and पंचम, there are a good many (about 44) stanzas suggestive of the erotic relations between men and women. On the other hand in the case of some sections primarily connected with Kāma, such as पेम्म, माण, पवसिय, विरह, अणंग, पुरिसुलाव, पियाणुराय, दुई मोलुग्गाविया, पंथिय, धन, हिययसंवरण, असई, बालासंवरण, कुट्टिणीसिम्खावण, वेसा, कण्ह, रुह, हियाली, वसंत and पाउस, there are a good many stanzas that are non-erotic. Both these kinds of stanzas would cancel each other, and the nett proportion of stanzas connected with Artha and of those connected with Kāma would remain roughly the same, viz. 46 and 45 respectively.
