Amarugataka, 95. 467) qfau (see st. 397) = take pity on me ( your consort ). facials = angers, quarrels.
gut$=3TIT: = gala night. EUT = bright with the (full) Moon ( =
151587 = F). Tag = tfa is slipping away. 468) fra = at ga = only two. For at see H. 3, 119. 3 A3 Fluffa = (1) know how
to elevate or raise to eminence ; (2) know how to raise (i. e., rebuild or reconstruct); (3) how to raise to prosperity. 31900 = (1) the families of Aparņā (i, e., Pārvati) and her relatives; (2) the temples of Aparnā (i. e., Pārvati or Gauri); (3) families plunged in distress and poverty. The fETTEE311 = the beloved consort of Gauri (i. e. Siva, who by marrying Pārvati, raised the family of Pārvati and that of her relatives to distinction). King Sätavāhana reconstructed the delapidated temples of Parvāti in his kingdom and he also rehabilitated the families of poverty-stricken people with monetary help. The stanza is thus an example of trisemi or triple śleşa.
469) qiefs = CSF = Pāțalā tree (bearing reddish flowers). FAG FETITE = without any

The speaker of the stanza is a woman complainiug to her aunt about her own brother-in-law wearing many Pätala flowers on his head. As there is only one Patala tree in the entire village, and that too in the village-chief's house, the brother
in-law must have received the flowers from the village-chief's wife (or daughter) as a token of her admiration for him. She therefore warns the aunt that if the village-chief comes to know about his wife's (or daughter's ) love-affair with the brother-in-law, he will certainly punish the brother-in-law. For 7 To cf. st. 68.
471) Tg = F = on their faces. TE Š (K. C.) = having long or beautiful eyelashes
